Do I really have to see these commercials?

Ok, I live in Toronto, Ontario Canada. So I'm watching t.v. with my niece and the most fucked up commercial comes up on t.v.

It's for the WSIB (Workplace Safety Insurance Board). There are there commercials and two of them have people either falling on glass and getting up with blood dripping down their face or beams falling down and impaling a guy.

I mean, it gets the point across, but watching The Simpsons and then the next second seeing this commercial come up is kind of unnerving. Especially when watching it with a child.

The link is here. Click on 'Watch-it'. These are the commercials that are actually aired.

I dunno, maybe I'm over-reacting, but what do you guys think?

    Personally I find the newer simpsons episodes to be more horrfying than these ads.
