The Liberals have abandoned key democratic reform promises. They failed to move significant electoral legislation until the deadline on which it needed to have been passed. Then they broke another promise by shutting down debate on an election bill. Now they have rejected important amendments to safeguard our elections from digital meddling campaigns.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5593557\" data-originallang=\"en\">It is clear the pre-November 2015 Liberals and the current Liberal government have very different views on democracy and democratic reform. Why? Because it is not in the best political interest of the Liberals.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5593558\" data-originallang=\"en\">The <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> took the electorate for fools. Let us send a message in 2019.</p>",

Les lib\u00e9raux ont reni\u00e9 de grandes promesses entourant la r\u00e9forme d\u00e9mocratique. Il n'ont pas r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 faire adopter un projet de loi \u00e9lectorale important avant la date limite \u00e0 laquelle il fallait l'adopter. Ensuite, ils ont bris\u00e9 une autre promesse en mettant fin au d\u00e9bat sur un projet de loi \u00e9lectorale. Maintenant, ils ont rejet\u00e9 des amendements importants visant \u00e0 prot\u00e9ger les \u00e9lections contre les campagnes d'ing\u00e9rence num\u00e9rique.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5593557\" data-originallang=\"en\">Il est \u00e9vident que les lib\u00e9raux d'avant novembre 2015 et le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral actuel ont des points de vue tr\u00e8s diff\u00e9rents sur la d\u00e9mocratie et la r\u00e9forme d\u00e9mocratique.
