Sorry Jaline, I knew what you ment. I'm just practicing the fine art of being a dick...

I could actually sniper down people in the Supreme Court of Canada from my office.

I don't think it's disgusting. in context maybe some of you will change your mind? Looking at a new, flat B&W logo versus one as familiar (albeit clinical-feeling) as the old one is a tough thing to do objectively.
i like the concept... that being siad, the execution does leave something to be desired.
I'm not sure why everything in this day and age needs to be skewed or faux-perspected to make it appealing to suits.
bah....

I'd have to disagree with you Gucci. It's a terrible design as a whole. Rotating it didn't help and it's not even a decent representaion of the flower. It lacks imagination and sophistication. The quality of the final piece is hideous. It's as if somebody's child drew it and they had it brought into Illustrator.
Besides, when I look at it I see 3 people sitting in a trianglular shaped hot-tub from above!

these are my "bosses" making these decisions.
I am mostly concerned about the cost of putting it on every bloody piece of everything the government hs ever made.
and it DOESn't even LOOK like a trillium!

wow that sucks. I figured a politicians kid designed it, but nope.
Old one is way better.
New one is a turd.

- hugelogo0
I know who didn't design it...
the designers.This looks like a classic client driven logo disaster.
poor Canada
- DragKng0
i agree w Huge... the client designed that.
ABSOLUTELY.
That agency puts out some quality ads for the govt.
I think the stupid.ca capaign is very well done.

If only we lived in a world where designers could smack down design advice from clients.
They come to us not because we know what we're doing, but because we can move the mouse around for them.

i'm pretty sure stupid.ca was a brand created by taxi. (payday is ok though)
Yeah, that logo is extremely embarassing. No i know how the germans feel. (world cup logo & eric spiekermann's reaction)

ah ha ... The plot thickens!!!!!
Two leaders accused the Liberals of favouring Toronto’s Bensimon Byrne, which came under fire last fall for getting $6.3 million in government contracts after it did volunteer work on the Liberals’ election campaign.
John Tory launched a website Wednesday to petition the government into keeping the original trillium symbol.
- Jaline0
That site is nicely designed, but those damn Conservatives! All I heard about on the radio was how the Liberals purposely made the symbol seem more 'liberal' and stuff. Maybe it's true, but I think most of us can agree that the new logo sucks.

- aliceblue0
