The hoarding enclosing the Toronto Community Housing building under construction at the corner of Carlton and Mutual Streets is not that much unlike other projects like it around the city: covered with advertising posters for Fido, Toronto Stories, and The National Ballet of Canada, in spite of the "Post No Bills" signs those posters recently buried, it's a mostly unremarkable site. Still, someone's had just about enough: they've ripped down some of the posters to reveal the "Post No Bills" signs underneath and done some postering of their own, with signs that either re-affirm the rule or suggest that their reader "ask these companies why, when they get a generous tax benefit for advertising from Canadians, that they poster where they have been asked not to." The homemade 8 1/2 x 11" posters plastered onto the walls were caught this week by two members of Torontoist's Flickr Pool, Loozrboy and (former Torontoist editor) Marc Lostracco.
