I actually don't mind the thought of some video screens or billboards. The city has done its best to stamp them out downtown as though they are public enemy #1, but if used in moderation I think they could liven up the streetscape a little bit.
That said, the visibility of a screen on Carlton or Edmonton would not be that high... or perhaps not high enough to attract enough advertising to support a giant screen.
