Dental care pilot is a pretty big deal too, though cannabis legalization is probably going to be the first line item.

Yes, dental is a big deal, but everyone knows it's an NDP initiative. :)

So what?

If a good policy gets implemented, I don't care where the idea originated, only that it happened.

The fact that they were willing to work cooperatively with another party to come up with mutually acceptable outcomes puts both the Liberals and NDP miles ahead of the CPC.

I agree with you. The parties should work together. I just don't think Trudeau will be specifically remembered for the dental program. Kind of like how Tommy Douglas is considered the father of universal health care rather than whoever was PM at the time federal Medicare was legislated.
