Today (September 7th, 2011) the writ is dropped and the election officially declared. Issue of the Writ.
There are rules around placement of signs.
2011 Federal Election Signs |
Ottawa by-laws state that signs cannot be placed on boulevards. It is as distracting as the roadside memorials.
Well the twitterverse is heating up. All heckling is breaking loose. I keep wondering What Would Jack Layton Think? (WWJLT)
Gotta love signs! |

Saw my first Randall Denley signs- all illegally placed on boulevards on Carling ave. I'm sure he will remove them #ottcity

The mayor is already on your case @Randall_Denley

@exit716 not really. Medians can block visibility that's why ALL candidates have to ensure signs don't cause accidents!

@tylercameron bylaws are for all. When I was a candidate for mayor we followed the rules why shouldn't every candidate?

@JimWatsonOttawa Walked by Madeline Meilleur signs on city property on Montreal Road just now.
WWJLT?
Complaints about Lawn Signs
Do not forward complaints about the placement of campaign signs to Elections Ontario, as they have no jurisdiction over them. If public property is affected, direct all calls to the respective government office. Alternatively, if signs are close to a provincial highway, the issue may fall under the Ministry of Transportation’s jurisdiction. You
drive-thro' signage! |
