TMX, Coastal Gaslink, Eagle Mountain, among other pipelines are all being built, not to mention all the LNG facilities, if they're "blocking" these then they're not really trying that hard.

I'm not aware of any income tax changes? If anything these have been moderate and could easily be described as centerist. It's not like they're seizing assets from the wealthy to redistribute.

They're walking back drug decriminalization as we speak.
Have you been living under a rock these past few years? You don't have to be communist to be left wing.

Rents have been close to frozen for the past 3 years (below inflation rent increases are a rent reduction, really).

UNDRIP is legislated.

Horgan's cabinet fought for three years from 2017-2020 to unconstitutionally block interprovincial trade, which was eventually struck down by the supreme court.

The BC NDP implemented a whole slew of new taxes while removing others meaning the top 1% pays more tax than in 2016, while everyone else pays less. This includes the two new highest provincial tax bracket introduced in 2020 along with the elimination of MSP premiums.

And the drug decriminalization happened. Whether they walk it back or not doesn't change the fact that they experimented with it.

Bear in mind, this is all coming from someone planning on voting orange in October!
