Vitamin company Herbaland's ad was featured at the Vancouver City Centre SkyTrain station. The mural displayed a selection of the company's products set against a maple leaf and large text that read, "Herbaland proudly made in (the 51st state) Canada." In it, "(the 51st state)" is crossed out in white.

I get what they were going for here but wow thats one incredibly badly thought out ad campaign.

The whole thing was ill-advised, and the execution makes it even worse.

In the picture, the white line crossing it out looks more like vandalism than part of the actual ad.

I originally thought it was just reflection of light.
