City to teen playwrights: no signs!

The problem is that the signs, which are about the size of a car licence plate, qualify as posters under the city's bylaw, said Linda Anderson, head of enforcement at the City of Ottawa's bylaw office. That means they must be made of paper and are only allowed up for a couple of weeks at most — not long enough for a three-year installation. City crews tear down posters across the city on the first and the 15th of each month.

Meanwhile, in Bells Corners, no sign of bylaw enforcement officers or "city crews" anywhere in sight.

Hell's Corners

What is today's youth coming to? These kids have no respect. When I was a kid we were performing civic duties like cleaning up trash cans via incineration, and beautifying the neighbourhood with spray paint. But these kids are out there making satirical videos and working on their editing skilz.
