Ottawa the nation’s capital is home to a Liberal government of Promise Breakers. You’d think politicians would think twice about violating their election pledges, with this a 24/7 news cycle, constant updates on Internet media sites and the unrelenting deluge on the interent . But that hasn’t stopped them — either because they really have nothing but contempt for the public’s intelligence and memory, or they would not get elected if they would not lie.. Trudeau failure to deliver is based not just on individual promises but a leadership potential that was rooted in misplaced expectations and an false constructed image .Many now see how real shallow, incometent he real is. His entire campaign was rooted in a dubious premise. Trudeau had insisted throughout his campaign he was going to “save” the economy through “modest” deficits and a “middle class” tax cut combined with an increase to make the rich “pay their fair share.” it is gullible to believe that Trudeau was really going to produce deficits that hardly mattered while bringing tax relief to Canada’s vast middle class. It is transparent that Trudeau is preparing for not modest but robust deficits and only a fraction of the real middle class will benefit from tax cuts.

Where else is Trudeau coming unglued?
.
He promised to restore Canada Post home delivery for all Canadians without thinking that one through and looks like he’s prepared to entertain the status quo.

The Liberal government has broken a promise to immediately implement firearm-marking regulations to help police trace guns used in crime, the pledge had not been fulfilled. The regulations would require that specific, identifiable markings be stamped on firearms and had been slated to take effect Dec. 1 of last year. n their election platform, the Liberals said they would “immediately” implement gun-marking regulations. The party also promised other, longer-term measures aimed at making it harder for criminals to get and use handguns and assault weapons. The long-planned regulations would require domestically manufactured firearms to bear the name of the manufacturer, serial number, and “Canada” or “CA.” Imported guns would have to carry the “Canada” or “CA” designation along with the last two digits of the year of import. The measures would help Canada meet the requirements of the United Nations Firearms Protocol and a convention of the Organization of American States.

He also had criticized the Conservatives for rendering the Temporary Foreign Worker program ineffective but is now taking a rigid Canada first line about Canadians filling jobs they refuse to do. Like his predecessors he hashed the existing government but next did the same things
.
Trudeau has not yet pulled our CF-18s out of theatre — as he said he was going to do immediately after being sworn in as PM.
.
PM Justin Trudeau had promised to end bombing runs in Canada’s Syria mission. But whether Trudeau will be able to stand by his campaign commitment to refocus Canada’s role in the war-torn region is still the question in the aftermath of his election now. Trudeau likes to say Canada is back, but the military is void, broked, needs loads of money not available.
.
Once in power, however, Liberals concede that they will not keep all of their election promises.
.
A bad Liberal is equal to a bad Conservative.

Canadian participation in the fighting came as the new Liberal government was once considering when to withdraw its six CF-18s from combat and how to beef up the ground training mission of local forces Trudeau has pledged a more robust training presence in Iraq, but he had planned to end Canada’s air force’s role in the U.S.-led coalition bombing campaign.
He insists Canada will still be a “substantial military contributor to the military efforts against ISIS,” but his government’s inability to define and articulate what that will look like carries now a mounting political cost for the Liberals. But Canada’s defence minister has said that the air combat mission, including CF-18 bombing sorties, will continue well into next year, and perhaps beyond the parliamentary authorization.” Trudeau now has been less adept at explaining why he intends to withdraw the six Canadian fighter jets from the airstrikes against ISIS targets in Iraq, in favour of increasing the number of military trainers in the region. However, it does represent the latest example of the Liberal government, which had promised to do politics differently, either breaking or backing off a promise made during the election.

The Liberal government has already failed to deliver its promise to resettle 10,000 Syrian refugees by the end of 2015 3,700 fewer Syrian refugees landed in Canada than promised by Trudeau. Liberals fall short of year-end goal for refugee resettlement . Canada’s Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Minister John McCallum announced Thursday that just over 6,000 refugees, most of them privately sponsored, will have arrived in Canada by the end of the day on Dec. 31. That’s far short of his party’s election pledge to bring in 25,000 government sponsored refugees before the New Year and also well shy of the revised goal of 10,000, set in early December when it became clear the first promise was not to be met,the Liberals have clearly broken an important election promise that they knew they could never meet.
The NDP also sharply criticized the Liberal government’s missed targets. “Not only did this minister irrefutably fail to live up to the promise Liberals made to Canadians in the last election but he even failed to meet his own lowered expectations,”
The government’s failure to keep even its own scaled-back promise is obvious . But it does represent another black mark for a government that is only a few months into its mandate.

And what other LiEberal Election promises are going to be broken next?

Trudeau’s immoral pledge to legalize marijuana seems to be be overruled by international conventions. Justin Trudeau, the Liberal prime minister , ran in part on a promise to legalize marijuana, and said he was going to ” get started on that right away,” but now, Trudeau has said his efforts have hit a snag—international treaties. They were, uh, there during the election campaign, even if they were left unmentioned by the candidate himself. Now Liberal government will have to do substantial work on the international stage before it can follow through on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s promise to legalize marijuana, new documents suggest. That work includes figuring out how Canada would comply with three international treaties to which the country is a party, all of which criminalize the possession and production of marijuana. Trudeau’s plan to legalize, regulate and restrict access to marijuana is also proving a complicated and controversial undertaking on the domestic front, in part because it requires working with the provinces.
The treaties—the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs , the Convention on Psychotropic Substances and the United Nations Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances—date back to the 60s, 70s and 80s.

“Remember those too typical pre-election Conservative Politicians lying words even about holding now real people in the civil and public services, governments accountable now for their wrong doings.. well how many new persons had been prosecuted, held accountable since? how many?? “

Groups fight retroactive Conservative firearms data law. A retroactive Conservative law buried in last spring’s omnibus budget bill fundamentally undermines the rule of law and government access-to-information systems across Canada, according to court submissions in a paused constitutional challenge. Twelve of Canada’s 13 provincial and territorial information commissioners, as well as the Criminal Lawyers’ Association, are seeking intervener status in the case, which challenges the former government’s unprecedented rewrite of an old law to get the RCMP and any other government official off the hook for illegally destroying long gun registry records. “Should this legislation withstand this challenge, it would have far-reaching implications for criminal law principles,” Provincial and territorial information commissioners say they share “profound concern” over questions of “fundamental importance,” including “immunizing public officials from liability and prosecution.” Legislation retroactively removing the right of access and oversight mechanisms in their entirety, or government action destroying the records, is a particularly egregious infringement,” of the constitutionally protected right to access government information, “Put simply, citizens must expect that when they break the law, they are subject to investigation, proceeding and sanction even if the government subsequently repeals the law that was contravened,” says the CLA submission. “This is fundamental to the rule of law: a citizen is forbidden from breaking the law that exists at the time of their action.”
