The problem here is that the Conservatives will not introduce a single, stand alone bill on pension reform that every party could support. They will likely introduce it as part of another omnibus bill, loaded with other questionable amendments that the other parties can't philosophically support.
As such, the Conservatives will be able to challenge the NDP and the Liberals as not supporting pension reform.
Politics is a dirty game, and even something like this, which the vast majority of the country would support, will not be done simply.
