Why is the implementation slow? How hard can this be?
You bought an oil pipeline in three months, surely you can manage to cut cheques for poor, disabled people in a similar timeframe.
Unless.
Unless you don’t want to do it.
tbf, they’ve done a shit job at the pipeline too.
I don’t think that the federal Liberals choose to be bad at implementation, I think they just do the press release and then lose interest. Pretty much all of their signature policies have suffered implementation fuckups, from the terrible PR for the carbon tax (and the subsequent exemption for heating oil), to the continued existence of the cannabis black market, to the increased immigration numbers.
It’s frustrating, because Trudeau and co talk the talk, but don’t do their homework to get the policies right. Or protectively fix them when fuckups become clear.
