Rider Paul sent in a few gems which he already posted about on his blog, but he's allowing me to repost them here. What the photos show are a series of ads on the Route 15 Trolley for all things Canadian. Weird. Above is an ad for what seems to be a job placement agency in Ontario called Job Connect. Anyone planning to move to Toronto and need a job? Call 416.531.4631 x0 (extension 0?!) and get the hook up!
And once you're in Canada, you're gonna need a credit card, right?! Well Capital One's New To Canada program guarantees that you'll get a credit card up north so you can "build good credit behaviour" right away!
And this one's not easy to read, so let me spell it out for ya:

Brought to you by Toronto's public transit agency: TTC.
SEPTA's kinda saying: we suck, mover to a cleaner, nicer, whiter version of Philly which also has mass transit! Go Toronto! Note, this is not an ad campaign to visit Toronto which would be a whole different thing. This is a 'move to Canada' campaign. Weird.

You would think the people that put these up would notice something?
Great blog - keep it up. I will be sharing for sure.
This seems to be a callout in multiple cities to recruit Americans to jobs for qualified people....yeah right terrible campaign, we certainly wouldn't want people to get back to work regardless of the location. Maybe, just maybe some folks would like a new start and if you can handle the weather and the accent perhaps this is for you. I see no problem with this ad campaign, quityerbitchin about everything irrelevant SF
