I must say I'm pretty shocked though. The Conservatives told us that those anti Dion ads had nothing to do with an election, and I believed them because Conservatives never lie.

No matter what they say, I think the adds were there to test the waters of Dion's leadership. Had the adds tanked that is one less things the Cons can use. They (the english ones) havent tanked which is a sign that people dont vie Dion "Prime-Ministerial" blah blah blah.
Remember, when those adds were likely produced, the Cons were getting hit hard on the Enviro with Rona and Dion was getting off nearly scott free off his previous inaction over Kyoto.
There is no doubt it was an election primer, I dont think you can call them election adds with they are 2 months before an election. Also remember that the new election spending laws limit what a party can spend so if the Cons have buckets of cash, its good to spend it before the election call when you are limited.
