These ads are ubiquitous and you are paying for them, courtesy of the Conservative government’s flagrant, costly and determined use of your money to brag about itself. The money comes from, and the ads are directed at, you and other people the Conservatives like to call “hard-working taxpayers.” But they are intended to benefit Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s government, pure and simple. No government in Canadian history has used your money more relentlessly to promote itself. Yes, other governments have spent money on overtly political advertising, which those of you who pay attention can probably recall. But never has there been such a brazen use of public money for so many ads. And expensive ones, too.
