Signs are going up in black and white with no conservative blue or

word conservative on them. Just an issue and the local conservative candidates name (In canada we vote for the local candidate of one party or another, the party with the most riding wins... their leader becomes Prime Minister. So when you see the ballot it is just a list of local candidates with no party affiliation). So the liberals are copying them. This is going on in Ottawa at least. I'm tired of all the norms being trashed. Makes me think conservatives find canadians too well informed so they must obfuscate. Imagine dropping the blue from democratic candidate signs.

Pandering, lowest-common-demoninator stuff. I haven't seen a whole lot of this sort of thing here, but I have seen a lot of signs (of all parties) knocked down.

Hence the lack of colour, otherwise it might be an actionable offence for counterfeiting or whatever the electoral term would be.
