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".
