Honestly childcare should be the main issue this campaign. A coast to coast to coast program that would save families thousands of dollars and would primarily benefit women. This would be a program as iconic as universal healthcare. A no brainer.#cdnpoli #Elxn44

I do wish the Liberals could do a better job telling Canadians why they are seeking a majority government now. Parliamentary reporter Dale Smith explains the "toxic spring" we had this year:For 50 years+ the women’s movement has pushed for a strong, affordable, reliable child care system. The pandemic boosted public desire (need?) & political will.

This is an HISTORIC moment for child care. We have the power to vote on it in #Elxn44 @pamelauppal @ChildCareON @o_n_n https://t.co/49jQYPenal
And I'm glad to see Trudeau strike back:Dale Smith follows Parliament every day, so we don't have to. This column is a reminder of the toxic 2021 spring - O'Toole's disqualifying performance, the disfunction created by CPC and NDP, & how poorly they served Canadians.https://t.co/EeEvBT0ogb

And then I see something like this, and it makes me feel better too:With a kid under 12 who can’t get vaccinated, I’m infuriated by this. You should be too. https://t.co/vbcX9Co1JK

And in other news:Somehow I don't think this will make it into Macleans magazine.

Jack was a friend of mine. Whoever thought this was clever, isn't. Milking Jack's memory for a soulless photo op, isn't just wrong. It's gross. https://t.co/oX25lVRn8C

Thanks for bringing us the laughs and gaffes from the election. But trying to blame Jack Layton for the dismantling of Paul Martin's child care programme is a bridge too far. Don't take my word for it, here's Martin himself: “The Conservatives cancelled an existing, operating child care plan that had been signed by all 10 provinces and was under way.”
Another minority government looks increasingly likely. Gaslighting the party whose support you'll need isn't good strategy.
Cap
As an NDP voter, it doesn't freak me out, Trudeau is finally hopefully getting what he deserves, he's a lier, a blackmailer, arrogant, corrupt jerk, who decided that when the world was trapped in the bowels of Hell was a good time to call an early election.
Calling it during the pandemic was one thing, calling when BC & the North & Siberia is on fire to the point where I can smell and see the smoke all the way here in Southern Ontario in the rural part of the GTA, is another. Bonus goof points for doing it while bumbling his way through the collapse of Afghanistan.
And no body but hard-core libs want this this election right when we're drowning in multiple crisises, and it's looking like Ragnorok out there.
And he's doubly screwed because Jagmeet is alot more experienced as leader and very popular and perhaps even worse for Trudeau is Erin O'Toole platform has shifted the CPC so far left it could have been written by Jack Layton's ghost. It's going to be nearly impossible to use the CPC as a boggy man to blackmail the voters this time into voting Liberal.
