143 out of 230 kept with 20 out of 230 in progress.
Political discourse can be difficult enough without hyperbole making things worse.

One of two that has over 1,000+ comments. It was only reason I originally voted for him.
The 25,000 Syrian refugee promise, for instance, was broken because that number was reached two months after the stated deadline. Six billion in green infrastructure over four years turned into five billion over five years. The revenue-neutral tax changes (lowered taxes for the poor, raised taxes for the rich) resulted in a small net decrease in taxes (The Tories, who hated that tax policy should be cheering for this - but instead, they are complaining that he didn't raise taxes for the rich enough!)
On the other hand, things like 'end subsidies for the fossil fuel industry' had zero work done on them.
I wouldn't grouse too much about the first category of promises - especially when the CPC didn't want to take any action on any of those items. A half-assed implementation that gets most of the way to the finish-line is one thing.
I would grouse quite heavily about the second category of promises. And about the mountain of corruption scandals that the Liberals are finding themselves in.
All things considered, though, I would not expect this particular pledge to be carried out successfully. Expect an avalanche of money to be dumped into the laps of Telus, Bell, and Shaw.
Promises that help established big corporate businesses: Kept
Promises that don't: Broken
