Torontoist Follows Up: Hell and Billboards

A couple of weeks back we posted on Tourism Australia's new "risque" ad-campaign. Well apparently the CBC is a bit skittish about running the ad during "family programming" because of the word "hell." Uhm, have you been down to the schoolyard lately? The kids are using words much much worse than hell. Besides the Aussies need all of our love and support right now after being hit with the worst cyclone in a century. If anyone wants to send Torontoist down as a goodwill ambassador we'd totally volunteer.

Also the people dinged by the Yonge and Dundas billboard (those metal pieces below!) are considering legal action. We say give 'em hell!
