Agreed. It also only highlights certain stances by the parties/candidates.

I did the survey for the Democratic Presidential Nominee between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton. I noticed a lot of the questions inquired by the survey did not touch on the key points by both Candidates. I suspect it is also this generalized with the Canadian Federal Elections.
