I'm not a fan of the convservatives but it's still unfair to place the blame of a bad choice of client on a political party. A lot of non-partisans were involved in getting the project running.

Sure, but it would make more sense to refer to them by name than as "Justin Trudeau's Conservative predecessors" or whatever.
