The biggest difference is that if you even look at the Liberal platform in the last election and the election before it was extremely anti oil sands and those platforms if enacted would have devastated the energy sector, and they made no disguise of it as they knew that they had to cater to the Eastern Vote.
I don't recall Harper every making anti-gay anti lesbian anti abortion campaign promises during his election, it was more the Liberal's stating that he would do it if he ever got into a majority government position.
