let's not jump to conclusions on the ads. just look at the facts:

1) one has been prime minister for ten years
2) one was a cabinet minister in one of the most important provinces in the country
3) one was a high school drama teacher

you don't need to be brainwashed by obnoxious ads to conclude that trudeau has the least experience, you just need to be informed of the reality of the situation.

but, nobody would have said harper had more experience than martin, either - that would have been foolish. in the end, this is simply not a vote driver. if it were, there would never be any changes of government.

rather, changes of government happen when voters decide that a change of direction is more important than experience and competence. it's always a conscious, calculated risk.

and, it's actually aligning in a consistent arc that has put trudeau in an increasingly better position than mulcair day over day for several weeks, now. mulcair is purposefully trying to campaign as the safe choice in an election where voters have made it clear that they want to roll the dice.
