An authoritative review of Justin Trudeau's tenure, with 25 independent experts weighing in on his promises and performance.
In this book, independent experts analyze the performance of Justin Trudeau’s years in power in over 20 important areas of government policy. The record of what has been done – and what hasn’t – will surprise even well-informed readers.
The focus is on six policy areas: Indigenous rights, governance and housing; the environment and energy; taxes and spending; healthcare and social benefits; foreign policy, immigration, and trade; and social policy including drug reform, labour rights, and racism.
Editors KATHERINE SCOTT, LAURA MACDONALD, and STUART TREW of the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives have recruited Canada’s most knowledgeable experts in their areas to contribute to this volume.
