“The Visitor” ad, above, seems to be a creation of a Liberal supporter and is being distributed on YouTube. It spoofs the “Just Visiting” spot, below, which is a creation of The Conservative Party of Canada and is being shown as a paid ad on Canadian network television. |

It seems clear that Liberals (I assume they are Liberals) are having a certain amount of fun riffing off of the Conservative “Just Visiting” attack ads. Here's one from the Libs that accuses Mahatma Gandhi of being a mere arriviste for Indian independence. I've put up the YouTube links to both ads here on the assumption that you need to see the original (on the bottom) in order to get the joke (on the top.)
2,400 hits for the Liberal attack ad and 27 thousand hits for the Conservative one. Not hard to figure out which one is more popular.
