However, it proved to be unpopular and contributed to the defeat of Liberal Party with its worst share of the popular vote since Confederation. By contrast, the Conservative party, who won the election, had promised to "develop and implement a North American-wide cap-and-trade system for greenhouse gases and air pollution, with implementation to occur between 2012 and 2015."
