Liberals don’t care either. Proven by decades of inactivity.
I’m not sure if you’ve noticed or not, but our national dental care, low-cost childcare, pharmacare expansion (PEI just got free diabetes meds and birth control), were all thanks to the Liberal government (with help from the NDP).
Healthcare is a provincial responsibility, so feds provide the funding, and provinces decide on how to spend it (or even if they’ll spend it… looking at you Doug Ford).
Things would be considerably more difficult with a conservative federal government, who would take away funding.
And I say this as an ADP recipient living in Ontario, where our provincial conservative government hasn’t added a penny to the grant over the last 10 years, despite costs nearly doubling and all kinds of patient advocacy groups begging the government to offer more support.
I highly doubt the liberals would have done any of that if not for the NDP. They didn’t implement any of it with “help” from the NDP, and only did it after the threat of toppling their government. Not exactly gonna clap for them when they weren’t going to do it in the first place.

Well, these were all platform promises through many of those “lost Liberal years”, so I’m not sure where the doubt comes from. They made good on their promise, and continue to deliver.
The NDP absolutely helped tip the scale when they had a minority government, because the cons would never give their support.
The point is, conservative governments don’t like socialism when it helps people, and thank the gods that the liberals and NDP do!
I’m not saying the cons would be better. I’m saying no one is doing anything but buying votes of non disabled people by seeming to care. The federal government is the overseer of CPP. CPP is the only recourse I have as a disabled individual in my province. I qualify for no other disability payments from anyone.
But they’re not supposed to care about me or my family either according to you. Though they are those responsible for my entire income and police me heavily should I make any money outside that income or even volunteer my time somewhere. I receive an income that is less than half of what is considered extreme poverty in my province for a single individual. We are a family of five.
