Nonsense.   In fact, the CPC took to the airwaves the minute Trudeau was elected party leader in 2013 and continued the personal attacks right through the 2015 campaign.    TV, radio, social media - no outlet was spared their feeble attempts to attack based upon superficial criticisms.     Meanwhile, Harper launched his 24/7 taxpayer funded vanity channel and spent hundreds of millions on non-stop partisan Govt ads.    So you can talk about "reality TV" - but the fact is, the CPC have always relied upon image, posing, scripts, and attacks to survive.   Never on simply passing policy - in fact they were legislative incompetents.

Trudeau was elected because Canadians became sick of Harper and his accomplish nothing CPC.     Yet the CPC still insist that they didn't lose the election - somehow it was Canada's fault for electing Trudeau.   There should have been a lesson learned here by the CPC but it seems to have passed right over their heads.
