Jack Attack

Question Period was hyping Jack Layton's new radio "attack ad" today (not yet up on NDP website...way to stay on top of things guys). Although the ad itself is rather harmless, it appears to be running in only Northern Ontario, the same region targeted in the last NDP ad buy.

And if you look at the last election results, you'll see why. Of the ten seats there, the Dippers hold two and are in play in six others.

  • and the reason the Dippers are "in play" in N. Ont. is because most of the north see the south (Queen's Park) as ignoring them. That's why the federal Liberals set up a special 'cabinet position' for economic development in northern ontario. no other region within a single province has this.
    that and the fact a lot of labour jobs are "unionized".
    traditional turf for Libs/Dippers
