Its like health care, people complain to the PM, but its a provincial matter.

Add in roads/traffic, energy, prisons, social services, long-term care, police, snow removal, etc., etc., etc.

Literally, the things that affect people on a daily basis are NOT matters of the Federal Government.

So when the 'fuck Trudeau", flag-waving, F150 crowd is pissed off about their current situation, they should stop to think why they keep voting for a Conservative government.

Unless they have a grievance about our national parks, foreign policy, aboriginal land, or national defence, they should focus their anger on the leadership who are actually causing harm to this country and their communities.
