lol

anyone else HATE that stupid guy from the Canadian Tire commericals? with is bloody one liners, like the new crank ratchet "Now that was fast"

god, that guy is soooo irritating

that is all




Keith they've finally been killed!!!!!!!

The Canadian Tire couple is no more.

When the retailer unveiled its new spring ad campaign Thursday, the bearded handyman Ted and his wife
Gloria were nowhere to be seen.

The famous pitch-couple had been showing off innovative products for the hardware chain for almost a decade. Loved by some and hated by many, the couple had transcended advertising into the realm of pop culture, where they were parodied by the likes of Royal Canadian Air Farce and This Hour has 22 Minutes.

Tracy Fellows, a vice president of advertising at Canadian Tire Corp., said the couple's â??demo-mercialsâ? were effective, but internal research showed that they were starting to wear on consumers by late last year.

Thought you would like that.
I heard about it on Friday, but thought you might've by Sunday.
Glad I could bring you good news......
I can't believe they survived for a decade.

Now we just need to deal with some of those Timmy Hoe ads, especially the seasonal ones.
