It's all political.

If the government fight hard, then lose, the opposing party will blame them for that and most likely make them win the next election. If they just do a marketing campaign telling they did the best possible, winning the next election is more probable.

And Trudeau has nothing to do with that, conservative or liberal, it will be the same strategy.
