I mean if I'm allowed to have a non true or false pride and can have some level of granularity, I'm proud of a lot of things.

I think we've done pretty good with national pharmacare, and dental care. I know its not perfect, and it came to slow, and the roll out wasn't great, but I have pride in the fact that were offering it.

I'm proud of the way we extended the way EI covers maternity and sick leave in the 1970s.

I'm proud of the legalisation of marijuana, because it now means that people have access to a product that gets tested for quality and health concerns.

Sure none of it is perfect, but I'll take 30% of what it should be as long as its a start. If we wait for perfection well never get anywhere. We just have to keep striving for better.
