The quality isn't that great but, as the artist who sent this wrote, "my photoshop skills suck, but so does Ed Stelmach. Call it an interpretive piece of art."
I think it's disgusting that my tax dollars were used to pay for what is essentially a partisan Re-Elect Ed advertisement. It's not a Government of Alberta ad. The government's not saying "I delivered." It's an "I delivered, vote for me" ad. They even used the Tory orange and blue in the ad. Isn't anyone speaking out about this? Or complaining? Where is the Ethics Commissioner?
Leaving aside the political commentary, the photoshopping is pretty bad - I'm a big fan of the political parody, but before sending sending out a piece of work across the net, try and get it to look a bit more polished.
In this case, the medium all but destroys the message.

Ed Stelmach is such a noob.
ReplyDeleteThe Socreds are having their leadership race this weekend. Looks like they will run a full slate of candidates this election.

Besides, name one CEO (or the employee of one, for that matter) who is better off under this "new framework".
