I mean, provincial government as a rule, but that doesn't mean the federal government can't do anything about it. If the Liberals couldn't have solved people's problems then they shouldn't have promised they would.

    Exactly. It's a provincial problem. The things that the federal government can do are indirect and slow moving.

    Also, if you are going to post links as if they are proof of what you are saying, the website of their political opponents is beyond useless.

    Or they can just build houses. Housing is ultimately the purview of the provinces, but the federal government can still do a lot of non-direct and slow moving stuff. Besides, it's not like provincial Liberals are doing a much better job.

    Feel free to tell me which of the claimed promises weren't actually promised by the Liberals. The one about affordable housing did happen.
