Commenter JAD alerts me to the ad campaign of the Canadian Labour Congress. You can listen to the ad here. The ad encourages listeners to tell their MPs to put “working people” first as they draw up the budget.
The ad is part of the CLC's “Get Real” campaign (that's its logo on the left). “Government must find solutions that help everybody, not just the banks and corporations that got us into this mess. Working people and their unions are going to be part of the solution as Canadians rebuild their lives and communities.,” the CLC says.
Are these the infamous “pro-coalition” ads that Harper was claiming had forced him to respond with his own anti-coalition ads? Because I'm not hearing anything about the coalition – just about the CLC and the government.
