I don't like that the conservative party is using provincial funds to advertise for their political views -- especially with advertisements which aren't rigorously truthful. It feels slimy, but does anyone know if this is legal?
That's a good point. They're spending our tax dollars on political advertising. I'm also wondering if its spending money outside provincial jurisdiction and whether that is legal.
You forgot the millions in subsidy they gave to oil companies only for them to turn around and lay off employees.
