Off the top of my head:

Implementing a carbon tax (one of the most effective mechanisms in dealing with climate change, according to most economists and organizations in the climate change sphere.)

Taking on a significant and impressive number of international refugees.

Peacekeeping missions across the globe to many of the most desperate situations and people on Earth.

Rolling out of a national dental plan currently serving low income seniors.

The entire CERB program that was one of the most effective and efficient ways to keep people from the worst of the pandemic... (speaking of which, a death rate of half of Amwrica's iirc.)

A boatload of humanitarian aid and missions, including almost 20 billion to Ukraine.

Fuck's sake, Canada isn't perfect but to say there's nothing to be proud of is either childishly ignorant or trolling.
