What are liberals in Canada? I’m getting so confused these days, with different countries calling parties by the same names but with totally different political alignments

Centre-left to mildly centre-right depending on the leader and point in history.

Center right with some center left policies when they're forced to do it is closer to reality.

Ok, so nothing horrendous. Thanks

A tip for politics, names are meaningless. Look at policy.

Be very alert when a law has "freedom, patriot, security" in the names, they are usually nefarious.
