The Great and Less Than Great Canadian Logo Thread

[megadude]

Someone on here pointed out years ago how so many town logos use blue and green. Saw a video on tik tok of the logo for Bridgewater NS and the Mississippi River Museum in Iowa. And it was pointed out that this logo basically exists everywhere in the world. A Google reverse image search very much demonstrates this. Also, instead of a B or a river, there's an S for Schulich School of Business at York U. Not sure why Schulich has a couple of leaves. You'd think it's for the department of environmental studies or something.

Also, reminds of a few years ago when the Alberta War Room, lol, was ripping off company logos:

^fugly logos, whether plagiarized or not.

I hate the Pepsi logo.

Read the story about the ridiculous Pepsi logo here (absolutely bollocks-loaded pseudo-scientific, phrenology-style horseshit):

yes, that is at least 1000 times better. I don't know why I hated the previous Pepsi logo...probably because that brand doesn't seem to know what it wants to be, and probably also due to the insane and preposterous horseshit that was part of the rebranding report. It was truly insane and preposterous horseshit.

You're just saying that because you're not part of the Pepsi Generation

Neither was Michael Jackson, even though he had his hair burned away for Pepsi.

King of Pop? Definitely not the King of Soda Pop. Jackson expressed that he didn't really like Pepsi and had agreed with them on not holding a Pepsi can and not drinking Pepsi during the commercial because he didn't like it.

It's just this, pretty much:



Only lacking the bare minimum of cleverness of it fitting into the letter.

Does the WNBA have the same rule as the NBA that logos must have a basketball in them? It comes off as incredibly cheesy.

Yeah... not a fan of Ottawa's logo. Looks too much like a minor league version of the Calgary Flames' logo.

241 Pizza was way more popular in the 90s when I would frequent it. Now there aren't many left. I passed by a couple of stores the past few months and I really wonder why they went super simple with their newer logo. Like, the old one definitely needed to be replaced or updated, but the new one is literally opening up Microsoft Word, typing in the company name, changing the colour of three letters and calling it a day.
