In Canada, Elections campaigns can last a MAXIMUM of 50 days. Somehow, in the past few years, the laws for campaign ads changed (thanks Crtc!) and they no longer fall into the category of a campaign. And there are newish election laws that set out a ‘pre campaign period’ that allows further erosion of the campaign time limit restrictions. That period - anytime after the last election. Wtf.
