Canada: view on Trudeau's environmental record by age 2021

Although Justin Trudeau's Liberal government is often considered more ambitious in the fight against climate change than that of his predecessor, Stephen Harper, viewed by many as a defender of the oil industry's interests, some believe that Trudeau's administration is not doing enough. This pessimistic view of Trudeau's climate policy is particularly common among younger Canadians: in 2021, nearly two-thirds of 18-24 year olds and more than half of 25-34 year olds felt that the Liberal government had done too little to address climate change.

Characteristic	Doing too little to address climate change	Pushing too hard to address climate change	Taking a well-balanced approach to climate change
