Here are the ads that everybody has been the talk of the town.

Going after Dion's environmental credibility:


This is the only commercial I would call an "attack ad". Though one could also say it's just a friendly reminder of what the Liberal Party of Canada did over the last decade.



This one is my personal favorite. It shows Dion has no leadership ability, and no ability to deal with adversity.


Interestingly, earlier in the week Ezra Levant showed that the Liberal Party has been abusing its connections to the Ad-regulating agency in Canada, Telecaster.

Today, one day after these Conservative aired in Canada for the first time, the heat is being cranked up to get these commercials off the air as soon as possible.

The television ads, which began airing Monday, use footage from last fall’s Liberal leadership debates to deliver the message that the new Grit leader is weak, indecisive and an environmental failure.

But that footage belongs to a consortium of TV networks which pooled their resources to provide live coverage of the debates. The Cable Public Affairs Channel provided the pool camera for each debate.

The networks are now looking into how the Conservatives obtained the debate footage for their ads.

It sounds to me like Dion is crying "That's unfair", again. The damage has been done already anyway. The Conservative's got a week of press coverage around the ads, they're on the internet, and I'm sure most people have seen them already.
