The conservatives were a minority government, a minority government is at the mercy of the opposition.
The NDP and Liberals would have never allowed the conservatives to change immigration rules in terms of putting a hold on parent/grandparents or changing refugee rules, or introducing conditional PR (In process I think). Only now do the conservatives have a majority, give them time.
People are beginning to realize that 250,000 immigrants is way too much, the conservative party base does not want this!
