... all parties present election platforms with policy intentions. For an assortment of reasons, not all policy intent realizes a legislative/law result - go figure! Those reasons run the gamut from running out of time, opposition obstructionism (yes, even in a majority government), Senate delays, provincial government influences, court challenges, policy intent review/change, external influences (say like war, pandemic, etc.), etc.. And yes, certainly include government incompetence and no intention to meet a pledged policy intent in the first place...

I guess this is why some 44% of Canadians believe Trudeau will say anything to get elected. That said they probably believe that's the case with most political parties and their leaders.
