The election campaign is heating up, so much so that even your pyjama-wearing, junk-food-eating Netflix binges are the subject of an official Conservative Party announcement.

Conservative Leader Stephen Harper has just released a new party video, explaining that, just like everybody else, he loves movies and TV. In fact, he loves them so much that he’s 100 per cent against a Netflix tax.

I love movies and TV shows. I'm 100% against a #Netflix tax. Always have been, always will be #NoNetflixTax #elxn42 https://t.co/oUYgTkXH3q — Stephen Harper (@pmharper) August 5, 2015

“Some politicians want to tax digital streaming services, like Netflix and YouTube. Some have even called on us to introduce a Netflix tax. Now, Justin Trudeau and Thomas Mulcair have left the door wide open to doing just that. I’m 100 per cent against a Netflix tax. Always have been, always will be.”

He goes on to say that voters can trust the Conservative Party since they’re the only ones to “focus on the needs of Canadian consumers”.

The hashtag #NoNetflixTax is now trending on Twitter in Canada, but perhaps not for the reason Harper would want. Instead, many are ridiculing the party and sarcastically thanking Harper for addressing the important issues.

#nonetflixtax Thanks focusing on the big issues Canadians care about! Who cares about PR, minimum wage, healthcare, or climate change! — Andrew (@xaxxryx) August 5, 2015

Fun fact: the world just learned that Breaking Bad is one of Harper’s all-time favourites.

#NoNetflixTax Cons are now making up imaginary taxes and then opposing them. We are through the looking glass, people. #elxn42 — Jeff Mackey (@Jeffrey_Mackey) August 5, 2015

I love how @pmharper's #NoNetflixTax pledge is driving the Left bonkers. — Blaise Boehmer (@boehmerB) August 5, 2015

Harper must think we are cats. We're occupied by real issues and he's franticly dangling Netflix tax at us. #NoNetflixTax #elxn42 #cdnpoli — Mary Linville (@mrsdrjim) August 5, 2015
