Noted

A new ad by the Conservative Party of Canada.

New ads by the Conservative Party of Canada frame Poilievre as a defender of the working class. It’s a departure from the more vitriolic ads we’ve seen from the party in recent months, focusing instead on coming “out of the long darkness” and into a hopeful dawn. These new ads were paired with a significant jump in spending, up to just over $40k for a seven-day period.

The digital advertising landscape in 2024 is so precisely targeted that for many people, it’s impossible to know which ads your neighbours, friends and family are being influenced by. We track the biggest spenders and high-profile campaigns every week on Meta, keeping you in the loop regarding what the rest of Canada is seeing.
