Canadian law don't let drugs ads talk about drugs. That's why they always try to get you by curiosity so you google it.
I am not going to google it to find out it's for impotence or incontinence. Then I'll be innundated with ads for those products.

Interesting, I didn't know that. Why even have ads for drugs then?

What's up with all the medecine ads not saying what the product does and telling us to ask our doctor about it ? Pretty annoying.

Is is because of a particular law ?
Yes, also if your watching on a streaming service the platforms ban targeting so they keep it generic. That way you evade the rules because it’s not targetted but it forces you to go what is it. If you have an illness and your struggling with the symptoms you’ll look it up to see if it’s for you.

Source, I sell digital ad placements for a living to the big pharma companies in Canada so I have to be well versed in the rules before I pitch

Yeah but its okay to BET BET BET BET BET. :laugh:

That's the f*** up part lmao. They were banned a couple years ago but then removed the law regarding bets.

It's pretty obvious that they are receiving brown enveloppe full of cash that goes straight into their pockets because their solution to act against gambling addiction? Run their own ads AGAINST gambling, using the taxpayers money LOL.

If Monaghan doesn’t get healthy before TDL there’s a good chance that HuGo offers him a 1 year show me deal and uses him as tradebait next year. If that’s the case, then for Beck to play next year, which I too think he will, HuGo would probably have to look to move Dvorak
