With the NDP coalition that's not as true in Canada. Between the national dental care plan that's coming and subsidized childcare, among other things, real left-ish progress is being made. But as usual a) the media isn't always telling a balanced story, b) government comms are shit, and c) the Liberals keep fucking up in visible, spectacular, and stupid ways, which distracts from genuine victories.

Which, come to think of it, does echo the Biden administration over the last four years...
