institution, he got rid of interest on federal student loans and increased federal student grants, he brought in the Canada disability benefit a federal program giving a direct monthly benefit to low-income
Canadians with disabilities aged 18-64, legalizing marijuana, legalizing medical assistance in dying, banning assault style rifles, banning conversion therapy, signing multiple United Nations treaties, created the Canada child benefit that gives tax free money to Canadian families, brought in 10$ -a-day national daycare/childcare, a national dental care program for low income Canadians, and a framework for national Pharmacare the plan is for insulin and contraceptives to be covered, and a national school food program etc. His actions very clearly show he is left wing.
757:-wing tradition was dead⌠and before Turner, people were saying the same thing of the party's right wing. And you could make similar observations about the other parties, too. I do not think it is helpful, or even really ideal, to write these articles from such a recent viewpoint, because every leader pushes the party in a slightly different direction, and trying to keep on top of that just means a lot of micromanaging and squabbling: if the Liberals take a position to the left of the NDP once or twice, would we now edit them as being to their left? If so, then do we change it

political parties in the Anglo-sphere and the even the broader western tradition. The article should be edited to reflect the
Liberal party âas it is todayâ, not as it was decades ago. It is not a centre left party. It clearly moved to align directly with the broad policy positions of the NDP. At this point it seems reasonable to define the Liberals as a left wing party within the general modern semantic shift of âleft wingâ as progressive ideology, primarily CRT support along with deep deconstructionist and identitarian bias in all areas of public policy implementation.

positions can't be inferred from a leaderâs actions but can only be determined by exclusively reading an article that explicitly states them. His actions that I've stated clearly donât make him centrist or right-wing however if you for whatever reason want to believe otherwise you're entitled to your opinion I don't have a dog in this fight either way.
823:
addition, the party has clearly decided to define its-self in the progressive side of politics by self-describing its-self as such multiple time and notable occasions (like
Trudeau's victory speech in 2021 and in 2019 I believe) they have also proved that by aligning with the NDP in their recented confidence-and-supply agreement.
822:
I feel like it should be considered centre-left, period. The party under
Trudeau has all-but shadowed its more centre-right, classical liberal factions. There might be some more centrists and right-of-centre within the caucus and the party. But under the Trudeau Jr. era it has all but dissapeared. In

I think there should be consideration for placing the
Liberal Party of Canada on the Centre-right to Centre-Left spectrum, as evidenced by shared centre-right policies with the Conservatives, from back-to-work legislation, prioritizing tax cuts that benefit 6-figure earners, and rejection of many NDP

We are a party of the radical centre. And that means that sometimes we have to fight against the state lest its monopoly withdraw too many liberties from citizens, and sometimes we have to give more power to the state lest men and women and their inequality of brains and of physique come to dominate
636:
I donât see how this centre aligns with the
Liberal party policy direction. The pre Justin Trudeau Liberal party of the early 21st century no longer exists. The party moved to an intellectual and practical position of what is regarded as extreme progressive ideology by any objective measure of

My comment was really just a general remark about
Trudeau specifically his actions and his placement on the political spectrum, not about whether the Liberal Party should shift its ideological stance. Trudeau is undeniably left-wing this isnât really up for debate unless you believe political
855:
I think we can all agree
Trudeau specifically is left wing under his government he increased federal minimum wage to 15$ an hour and tied it with inflation before covid which really helped with huge inflation that happened later, he banned unpaid internships unless tied to an educational

So what? Do you not have anything original to contribute to the discussion of this article on the
Libersl Party of Canada? Hyperlinking to the written thoughts of others is easy. The article requires discussion, that is literally the definition of the wiki talk page.
651:
I recommend the liberal party of Canada be defined as a left wing party. I would go so far as to say extreme left wing, but that is not likely to reach consensus here, but nonetheless can be supported by current party policy implementations over the past few years.
604:
I would at least like to hear opinions on this. Perhaps a compromise would be like what we see on the NDP page, which is a centre left party that has a left-wing faction. The
Liberals could be seen as a centrist party with both centre left and centre right factions

This is the talk section, by definition not every comment requires links to legacy media articles. Iâm curious what people think, why donât you share your opinion so we can ensure the page is as good as it can be?

Your personal opinion on the party's policies at the time should have no bearing on whether that statement gets removed or not. You should present reliable sources or relevant policy that support your position.

if the Liberals go to their right on other issues? Just seems like an endless amount of arguing. A longer, historical view is much easier to manage, but I also think it provides better context for the reader. â
