Randy Otto, the president of Pattison Outdoor Advertising, said his company agreed to run the ads on the condition that True North Strong & Free Advertising Corp. identify itself and let people viewing the billboards know how to get in touch

Otto said his company felt the group, which is registered with Elections Canada as a third-party advertiser in the 2019 campaign, was entitled to promote the views on immigration held by Bernier and the People’s Party of Canada – as long as it was prepared to deal with any fallout.

Otto said he did not like having been left alone to defend the ads or appreciate Bernier’s accusing him of caving to a “totalitarian leftist mob” when he decided to take the ads off Pattison billboards. “More than that, has been the very strong vocal, sometimes venomous, calls to my staff across the country, where people are expressing their opinions about the decision to either put the ads up or take them down,” he said. “And so people who had nothing to do with this decision and are simply answering the phone are getting extremely vicious calls from members of the public and that’s very unfortunate.

Otto said his company received the finished ad directly from True North Strong & Free Advertising Corp.“This was not a large campaign,” Otto said. “For him to say that he had no idea of the message, I find quite surprising.”Elections Canada requires all third-party partisan advertising to include a clearly visible tagline identifying the group behind it and indicating that the group has authorized the ad. Photos of the billboards show this tagline was included.

What a veiled, sanitized way to promote racism. Just who belongs to this ‘mass’?

I say YES to mass immigration, crowded cities, unaffordable housing, cheap workers replacing Canadians. There's a visa for anything to be a Canadian. Come one and all, hey you can even take a flight to NYC from Nigeria and just walk across the border claim refuge status (we pay).

The G&M still doing fee advertising for PPC. That Mad Max has made a fool out of the media. They gave him exactly what he wanted.

What part of the word MASS do they not like?
