    I’ve been seeing an insane number of CPC ads and it’s just vague bullshit promises about Crime, COMMON SENSE, and here’s the flag! It’s American style ads just with the Canadian flag substituted for the US flag. Then there’s a bunch of attack ads on Trudeau.

    And made me feel like “did I miss the news about an election being called?” Nope. They’re just starting political ads a year before the election like they do in the US. Nobody wants that in Canada. I don’t think they even want that in the US, but they put up with it I guess.

    It’s going to be a fucking long run up to an election if we have to put up with seeing this asshole’s face for a year. I think I may not be the only one that feels this way, so it may be the CPC spent a whole bunch of money on ads that only hurt them.

      Talking to my dad about these ads… They disturb me. Specifically the “stop the crime” they keep harping on.

      What crime exactly? The perceived notion they are leaning on is that the current Liberal Government is criminal and commiting crimes which is definitely NOT the case in any refutable way. Yet this is what his ad is saying. That is some shady ass behaviour from a federal party IMHO.
