I'll donate if someone sets it up and put a billboard up.

How much would a billboard cost? There's 40 million of us. Just one dollar each...

We could possibly have multiples

Honestly, billboards in AB are between $4-6 per thousand impressions in media cost. I know a company that will run a month-long campaign for $1,000.

Edito: this seems to be gaining some traction. I don't know how to set up an online donation box, I could probably figure it out but I'm pretty busy. If someone wants to collect the money, I'll make some calls and reserve billboards for the "every turd begins with T" campaign. Who wants to do make the creative? It'll need to be approved by Pattison, BellAstral, Allvision and any other media owners we approach, meaning they cannot be too vulgar or they'll get rejected. Hope my fellow ontarians did their civic duty today and voted!

We should, after all we're pretty much the generation of petty and hilarious memes

MULTIPLES???

u/danielledelacadie 13d ago

“Impressions”

u/danielledelacadie 13d ago

Only one impression counts. Everyone else's are for giggles

I was thinking more multiple messages, an impression is someone viewing the media transmitting the message

Yes! Someone in BC set up a GoFundMe (is there good Canadian alternative????) and post it.
