The Conservatives know or suspect (through their internal polling) that the election for them will be decided in the suburban ridings surrounding Toronto (the so called 905 ridings). The NDP are pretty much a non factor here, it is basically a two horse race between the CPC and Liberals and this is where each party can pick up a good chunk of their seats. Hence it makes sense for them to go after Trudeau more than Mulcair, however it will be interesting to see if this changes as the campaign progresses.
