Most parties campaign from further towards the left/right than they govern. The federal Liberals famously make all sorts of campaign promises to appease the left wing of the party (and steal a march on the NDP), and then ignore those policies or water them down once they’re in power. Most campaign promises are never fulfilled. This has been true since forever.
