Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will try to shift the focus from the SNC-Lavalin affair to his preferred campaign battleground -- climate change -- with the release this week of the Liberal party's first election-year ads.

Radio ads will air in the four provinces where the federal government is imposing a carbon tax after their conservative provincial governments refused to levy their own price on carbon: Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and New Brunswick.

According to the ads, an average family of four will receive more than $600 this year in Saskatchewan, more than $300 in Ontario and Manitoba and more than $250 in New Brunswick."We have a strong plan to fight it, one that leading scientists and economists support. It makes polluters pay and gives the money back to people."

The first payments will be visible to residents in the four provinces when they file their taxes this spring -- in plenty of time to register with voters before they head to the polls in October. Liberal party spokesman Braeden Caley says the rally and the radio ads have been planned for months -- long before the SNC-Lavalin affair engulfed Trudeau's government this month with allegations of political interference in the justice system. But the timing is felicitous as the Liberals seek to change the channel from the controversy.

The director of public prosecutions, Kathleen Roussel, decided last September not to negotiate a remediation agreement with SNC-Lavalin, a legal option that would force the company to pay stiff penalties without the risk of a criminal conviction that could cripple it financially.

How can anybody trust the Trust Fund Drama baby ever again. If he didn’t have such an ego, he would reign, allow Liberals to find a new Leader to run in Oct. But he won’t.

You can change the channel JustinTrudeau but we're still watching a liar run this country

From the sublime to the ridiculous - why not.

Not going to work!

In 3rd world dictatorships they call that a 'smoke screen'. We all know how much Trudeau admires dictatorships...

That's good.....because I want to get off the Trudeauland reality show and go back to being Canadian, myself.

I think Justin will lose the next election. That's it 🧐🧐🧐

They all look like deer in the headlights!

Yeah you know they're in trouble when they pivot to higher taxes as a positive

Give it up! You aren’t fooling anyone anymore with your diversions. TrudeauMustResign

Two hats should not be worn in government especially if it could mitigate or be influenced by party lines. Such was the case of justice minister Raybould and her two jobs. Both the prime minister and the justice minister were put in a predicament . Now is the time to fix this.

Another cabinet minister resigned are you planning to go down wirh the sinking ship

And they should. Enough said, let's move on . It was a bad case of who trusts who and mishandling between one who wears two hats as counsellor general and justice minister and the P.M. who thought the justice minister was of liberal mind , but in actuality was of another mind .

Too bad Philpott took the remote...

Read: MSM plants stories on climate change plan to deflect from current scandals plaguing gov’t.

Climate change..... winter, spring, summer and fall... yup, can't find a bigger reason to change the channel from corruption trudeau level

Climate change should be 1.

Here comes a Liberal made in Canada recession

Hope they got a few tricks from Trump on how to deflect from reality

The Liberals can't even tell the truth about our naturally occurring climate change; how could we expect them to be truthful about anything else?

When I have to I’ll show my sometimes 3 digit a month carbon tax bill. I think campaigning on taxing us is a bad plan. I’ll show you my rebate cheque right now though. I’ll post it right here. Oops I didn’t get one.

CindylouAB Run from criminal corruption scandal to carbon tax scam?

need to change the climate in their pants right now

Reasons to stop the CarbonTax before it gets embedded. Here's why. cdnpoli LavScam climatechange

And you'll let them right....

Our PM is a COWARD!!

Justin goes Industrial Grade Look! Squirrel!! in a desperate attempt to deflect attention away from this Kaboom!

Oh good. New taxes. Cuz that will increase his popularity..........

janephilpott may have a thing to prove on channel changing! cdnpoli SNCgate LavScam MarkNorman

media or no media, there are no better choices with the other parties. Besides you think any other party would have done differently with SNC? haha i think not. Harper would've been worse. either way, time to move on and focus on what we need. This is a good path.

I’m sure you ppl at CTV will oblige him! Lol

I wan to see Trudeau being held accountable- Too many wrongs he got away with. Canadian Justicve must wake up and do the right thing. TrudeauForJail

Diversion

This is just a sample how corrupt JT IS.

Yeah let's get back to how the world is melting, agreed woof

Scum-bag

Then don’t let them, you are the media- work for Canadians not the liberals and we will not think you are biased

I know I change the channel when he comes on er um aw er

OK. Let's change it to the Admiral Norman case. Or the email stories starting to surface between Clinton and Trudeau? Why did Trudeau pay Clinton Foundation 25M? Zero accountability. Who trusts this government any longer?

Of course they want to change the subject! trudeaumustresign

billcarrolltalk joe_warmington sunlorrie Morneau & McKenna look a little uncomfortable...

That's right, so have some ballz, and don't let them!

I'm impressed that CTV has dialed back their Liberal Op-Ed narrative for the time being.. or have they?

How can you believe anything they say now? Too many lies from them!

Trudeau! Face the people of this nation with honesty for once you liar .instead of trying 2 deflect criticism.

Good luck with that

Of course!! Focus on a lie instead of real corruption! I'm hoping Canadian news media is not becoming bias because of the money Turdeau gave them all. People who can't see what's really going on, feel sorry for you. Our country is at stake here. WAKE UP!

Sponsored content.. Cut the bullshit.

LOL...trying so hard to unblemish the Sunny Ways brand...😏

It’s up to you to not let him. Here’s your chance to restore some faith in the MSM

None of their plans are working, first it was to be the jobs plan but the economy is faultering to badly so now they jump to the Climate plan, they can’t even tell us the name of the Carbon rip off they are putting on us

doesnt look like Canadians are buying it LavScam TrudeauMustGo TrudeauCoverUp

Liberals now courting,targeting the NDP, Greens.. figure they don’t care about corruption, they will get free money, ... saving the planet.

Your tag line has to be more informative, it should say 'Canada's Mainstream Media will Help Trudeau Change the Channel From all his Poltical and Moral Failures'. Now it is correct. CPC_HQ

The climate is not changing

Not sure that the Liberal’s plan to focus on raising taxes is a great election strategy.

So they think they can hide criminal activity by bringing up another criminal activity like fake climate change lmao

Good luck. The opposition and the media have a bone already.

Not gonna happen!!...SNC will haunt you all the way to the voting booths.

Just digging a bigger hole!

Liberals need something more controversial than climate change, they should focus on the dozen ISIS fighters they’re allowing back into our society to really switch the channel

Too late!

Please keep on the SNCLavalin story. Don’t start distracting Canadians from the astounding corruption stories finally coming out. JustinTrudeau

What happened to investigative reporting?

Our country is to small to make a impact on “global warming”. US, China, India, Russia just to name a few are way to big. Why ruin our financial future for our kids for a “tax” that will do nothing. Our economy is at a standstill already this will not help.

They want to change the channel from their guilt and corruption by beating you over the head again with the climate change guilt / trauma based mind control bullshit. Create a problem, pose as the savior, and re distribute more of our wealth the the UN. Got it sheeple?

Trudeau needs to be investigated by the RCMP.

Nope. I like this show. Gonna watch right up until it’s canceled in October.

Nothing will Ever make me vote conservative. Nothing ever.

Good change another stupid things !!

Oh so you admit it, you guys at CTV are liberal!

Resign Justin. Canada no longer wants you and your corrupt government

That woman in blue is infatuated. She can’t take her eyes off him. The other two just look stunned.

Never trusted him. Don't trust Liberals at all.

Trudeau hasn't got any political capital left

Buuuhhhaaa hhaaa!! Still bullshits how can someone be without a shred of pride?

Nice try Libranos. TrudeauMustResign

The climate plan has been a successful smoke screen since the beginning.

The environment will be cleaned up when Trudeau leaves!

It’s up to others to see his distractions don’t work. This is the 2nd time he’s abused the Justice System, the first was his vendetta against Adm. Norman. Considering this DPA Law was brought in by Trudeau, this all has a stench of corruption on the PM’s part.

🤣

Corrupt SOB

WAY too late for that !

Global, CTV, 680 and multiple news organizations had the exact same message in their heading. If one was skeptical you would almost think there was collusion.

Good luck Justy!!

To hiding behind everything JustinTrudeau . Literally cowardice Hitler.

Liberals desperately want to 'change channel' to virtually ANY other topic. No surprise there. Just 7 MONTHS to go, JustinTrudeau !!

Good luck!

*tax plan

Not going to happen. JustinTrudeau needs to resign. ObstructionOfJustice TrudeauCoverUp CoveringButts FakeFeminist LavScam SNCLavalin TrudeauMustResign

Yeah... good luck with changing that channel, Trudeau. Are any of his advisors telling him that the more of this crap he pulls, the worse he looks, or does he just not listen to anyone? SNCLavalinScandal cdnpoli LavScam

oh no you don;t

Sadly even after breaking the law to favour a corporate donor in QUE and to use political influence to intimidate the Judiciary, most QUE and others across Canada will vote for him - a vote for Trudeau says more about you than him at this point - sad to see...

What climate plan? To charge us a carbon tax that does absolutely nothing for the environment? That is only revenue for the government? No thank you.

Dont worry, well remind him every day.

Justin, distraction might work for Trump but unlike his base, Canadians are not gullible idiots. Nice try tho.

FoxNews

yes the weather is always changing we know......look a squirrel!!!

so JT can get the mighty non-impartial new AG Liberal to get the Remediation agreement undercover. Like a byline like they stuffed it in the budget.

No. You choose billionaires over everyday Canadians

I understand Morneau standing with him they are both scum . But come on Duncan and McKenna first time you don’t do want he wants you are under the bus . You are women you are expendable.

Well well.then it is up to ctvnews to not let that happen or have ya all bowed down for your piece of the federal bribe called a bail out...to change the channel for the liberal_party canpoli libranos ezralevant

You can try and change the song JustinTrudeau but Canadians are still singing the same tune no matter what key you plan on singing with. CTVNEWS cdnpoli CPAC SNCLavalin WhatNextJustinTrudeau

Great!! From one scam to another!!! JustinTrudeau ec_minister cathmckenna 🤡s

lol Yeah like bringing a tax grab up that has increased the prices of EVERYTHING we buy where they are only giving back 154 dollars of the money they've stolen from Canadians is really going to make change the channel from their OTHER corrupt acts!

Both CTV & Trudeau must think Canadians are really stupid...a corrupt GVT wanting to raise taxes on a election year...duh ok!

Trudeau has been emotionally and psychologically manipulating Canadians since day one and climate change has been used to manipulate more people than any other issue. His useful idiots may buy it but I don't think the average Canadian appreciates being taken fir an idiot

The Liberals can just change the channel to CBC, they don't show anything about SNC-LAVALIN anyways. This is true life, when she hits the fan, you just can't 'CHANG THE CHANNEL' , and hope it goes away.

And water is wet, what's your point?

Get that dip stick out of government before he totally ruins Canada. All the big oil company’s have left Canada.

I think it’s funny how the people who don’t know which bathroom to use are trying to teach us about climate change. Let me educate you. Climate change is a globalist hoax designed to exert more money & power towards a one world government. Anybody with half a brain knows this.

One scam larger than the other....good luck with that.

Like they can even be trusted to collect another tax , far to corrupt to trust ......

Gonna get burned either way!

You mean the carbon tax redistribution of wealth scam ?

Hey why not! There sure doesn't seem to be any outrage from the learned peoples! (Maybe symptomatic of a systemic problem, but then again, what do I know?)

what is climate change? I only see a climate hustle

don't talk about the bad stuff ... push the good stuff ....

The Liberal Climate Change plan and Carbon Tax are part of the reason why they are in this shit hole in the first place. CBCNews RT_com

And here comes the media to help change that channel
