All governments everywhere frame their decisions in a way that is akin to gaslighting. If the majority of Canadians disapprove of Pierre's actions, or we lose the trade war with the US in a meaningful way that deteriorates our standard of living, then they will lose the next election. It's that simple.
People blame Trudeau now for all of their ills, as though that he has the power to magically make the economy go up and down with a snap of his fingers. The Liberals made investments in key sectors all the time, including housing starts, climate change and social justice, many of which are never going to be meaningfully acknowledged by people that debate politics online. Pierre is ultimately subject to the same political pressures.
Except that it will take decades to recover from that (if we ever do).
I agree with you mostly except I'm pretty afraid of Trump and I fear irreversible damage in the next 4 years. If Trump wasn't in office I wouldn't be overly concerned about a CPC majority
