Why do we continually shove sex down the throats of children in Canada? As an adult, the ads do nothing for me but think about the kids who have to grow up seeing sex 24/7. Yes, it is a natural thing and is a part of life but let the kids grow up and enjoy the life that most of us wouldn’t, at the moment, mind trading for.

Wow, you people bashing Alberta are more ignorant that you believe us to be. There are people all over the world that may take offence to that, not just in Alberta.

Personally, I like to see ads like these that aren’t boring or stereotypical.

Now they want to be proud of their retardation….
Don’t feel bad…. As long as Tim Horton’s is around the corner and Maple Leafs is on TV….be happy nation….Your retardation will save you….

Wow, now everyone thinks people living in Calgary are rednecks.

I didn’t leave my neighborhood for 2 weeks, are these ads nationwide?

I’m not saying everyone there is like that, but for those ads to be removed, clearly the majority of people too offense to it and need to get over themselves.

Alberta is the TEXAS of Canada. Way to conservative and closed minded. People need to get comfortable with the fact that there are gays out there and there is nothing wrong with it. They aren’t harming anyone! I’m a straight guy, and it doesn’t bother me at all, in fact I find it kind of edgy and fun and would actually draw my attention which in turn would make me much more likely to purchase their product. Hey, Alberta we are all living in the 21st century! I suggest you come join us!!
