What a fucking waste.

Seriously, who would spend that amount of money for a two word slogan?  :D

Do you agree, iago?

I liked Friendly Manitoba.  :(
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

Robert Ziegler, who co-chairs the group behind the campaign, said it's going to take a lot more than $2.1 million to accomplish the goal of raising Manitoba's profile locally and elsewhere.

"If you look at Saskatchewan, they've spent $14 million for their campaign. Montreal has a budget of $23 million for that," he said.

Are those millions actually working? Saskatchewan and Montreal don't seem to have that much of a higher profile than Manitoba.
The writ of the founders must endure.

We had a similar situation here.  I don't remember the exact costs but it was quite a bit to make the slogan Massachusetts - Make It Yours.
