Trudeau tracker: Has the prime minister kept his promise on ISIS fight?

This is the first of a regular segment on The National tracking the Liberal government's performance on its campaign promises.

Of the roughly 200 campaign promises made by Justin Trudeau during last year's federal election, the pledge to rethink Canada's mission against ISIS contained comparatively few details — aside from promising to pull out Canada's CF-18s.

The Liberal platform stated that if Trudeau was elected prime minister, his government would end the combat mission in Iraq and refocus Canada's military contribution in the region toward the training of local forces, while also providing more humanitarian support.

• Canada to end airstrikes by Feb. 22, triple number of trainers
• Ambrose brands ISIS mission changes 'shameful'

That promise was made in the summer, before the deadly November attacks in Paris led to calls from the U.S. and France for a greater military role for countries that were part of the coalition fighting ISIS in Syria and the surrounding region. 

Since then, a number of polls have suggested rising support among Canadians for the continuation of airstrikes against ISIS targets, putting the prime minister on the spot as he has repeatedly been forced to defend his position in the House of Commons and through the media. 

On Monday, the Liberal government said that Canada's CF-18s would be coming home on Feb. 22, 2016.

Trudeau laid out the rest of his plan as well.

It will spend $1.6 billion over three years on a multi-channel approach that will funnel $1.1 billion toward humanitarian aid, social services and infrastructure development, $300 million toward a tripling of military trainers and another $145 million for non-military counterterrorism measures. 

It would appear, then, that Trudeau is sticking to his commitments made during the election, even if public opinion and the reality on the ground may have shifted since then.
