Anybody currently watching Television in British Columbia
has probably seen the Enbridge ad a few times already. Jobs!
Prosperity! Environmental
Regulation! It sounds like this Pipeline
could really solve all of our problems!
However, with even a minor eye on the news it’s pretty easy
to see that Enbridge seems to lack the primary abilities to run a
pipeline. Leaks in Alberta. Leaks in Michigan. It’s actually surprising that the toilets in
their office function properly.
So, to counter the maddening Enbridge ads that are trying to
shove a pipeline down our throats (not to mention the Conservative Party of
Canada’s anti-Mulcair ads) I think we need to fight fire with fire. I’m proposing the production and airing of the
truth about Enbridge’s ability to run a pipeline. I’m thinking a working theme of:
Enbridge
Clown College. Clowns are
scary. These clowns are terrifying.
A brief disclaimer. I’ve
never created an advertisement for television.
I have no idea how to buy ad time on television or how much it will
cost. But....I’m pretty confident that
we can pull this off together. And
hopefully we’ll attract the attention of some people that can fill some gaps in
the knowledge base of my “team”.
$5 – Gets you a reassuring feeling that you’re helping to
make the world a better place.
$10 – Gets you an Enbridge Clown College decal to place on
the flat surface of your choosing.
$50 – Gets you an Enbridge Clown College T-shirt in the size
of your choice.
$100 – Gets you...I don’t know. 2 T-shirts?
$100,000 – Gets you a fully funded ad run on as many TV
stations at as many times possible in the Province of British Columbia. We might get around to posting it on YouTube
as well.
