Issues at the periphery.  How is Canada changing in some fundamental way as a result of there being a Liberal government?  Not in any way that I can see.  Why?  Because the two parties don't have fundamental differences.  

Changing the electoral system from FPTP to PR would have amounted to a fundamental change, and a positive one at that.  But, like the Conservatives, the Liberals don't want to change a system that unfairly distorts results in their favour.

It's just something the Liberals said to get elected.
