Justin Trudeau preaches openness, then turns around and stamps out opposition efforts to publicly scrutinize Canadian arms sales to foreign regimes such as Saudi Arabia. Governing can be ugly, and principle can pretty quickly go out the window.
Typical of Canada's Pravda to explain away the Pretty Leaders lack of promised transparency by using the "Conservatives did it". schtick.
To bad this article turned into nothing more than a fluff piece used to bash the Conservatives while deflecting the blame for the Trudeau gov'ts failing to keep yet another promise.
Keep up the good honest unbiased journalistic work CBC.
Kind of funny to see Neil MacDonald of all people end up on the bad side of the loyal CBC commentariat for pointing out the simple truth of "meet the new boss, same as the old boss".
Everywhere there's lots of piggies Living piggy lives You can see them out for dinner With their piggy wives Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon

When the Cons were running things, the typical argument was "well the Liberals did it too"... now it's the other way around.
That argument should be outlawed.
Same but different decisions.
Same but different criticisms.
