The main CBC English network (the one they want to defund) is getting considerably more Conservative advertising at least over the past three days than CTV.   Liberals seem to be favouring CTV a lot more than CBC.  Saw my first NDP ad last evening on CTV.

They'd most likely be going through an agency, and your money buys you more frequency to achieve reach on CBC due to smaller audiences.
