Good morning Vancouver!
There I was, just popping over to the Turkish shop across the street when I noticed that the billboard on the corner had changed adverts.
And there I was trying to find a link between Vancouver and The Netherlands!
I know that this advert would never be accepted anywhere in Canada and that it’s no big deal here and simply funny. There’s a cultural difference right there. No freaked out parents claming this traumatises youth. It’s a nice change from the usually photoshopped tits and ass featuring underaged girls for useless products. As if the men’s speed skating outfits weren’t revealing enough.
