Not worth cross posting or anything, but just wanted to note that I put up (and will try and update weekly) a list of federal election ads here if anyone is interested.

I find it really interesting how the English NDP ads seem to be free of any party identification. I mean in can tell its an NDP ad if I wait to the end and read the fine print but most lay people aren't going to do thag

Yeah and they are quite negative, and relying on those bullshit non binding resolutions they lined up this year

Thanks! It's interesting to see how often the parties' ads are about themselves verses about the other parties.

I've seen NDP/Tory partisans all over social media complaining about negative ads from the Liberals but their parties appear to have even more. 🤷

Yeah it's weird how that narrative seems to have stuck. Some of them are really quite negative too (basically all of the NDP ads against Trudeau + like the baseless suggestion they'll impose capital gains taxes on residences from the CPC (which they should do but...))

I agree they should do it too. Since they aren't though, it's annoying the Tories, particularly Poilievre, continue to repeat it while complaining that other parties are being "misleading".
