On that ICBC 'Monopoly' game thingy that we have been going about the last few days...

In addition to CKNW and Global, CTV also took the bait and began flinging the propagammon far and wide:

Someone with a sense of humour and knowledge of Insurance Corporation of British Columbia policy has created a mock version of the classic board game Monopoly.

In ICBC Monopoly, the traditional dog, thimble and race car figurines are replaced with ICBC employees, drivers and a dumpster fire.

Maclean Kay, editor in chief of The Orca, received a copy of the game via Canada Post Monday night. It was sent in plain packaging.

"A big box with no return address,” he said. “When I opened it, there was an ICBC Monopoly board game.”

...ICBC has been struggling financially, and this take-off of the classic game seems to be a playful jab at the corporation's predicament.

“You don't make a dumpster fire piece for a Monopoly set and not at least try to have fun with it,” chuckled Kay...


Funny, but...

Just like the other local proMedia outlets concerned, CTV makes no mention of Mr Kay's pre-'Orca' past, or that fact that his enterprise of the freeman (not in Paris) website has itself flung ICBC Mono prop in the past.

Imagine that!

Propagammon?....It's an old Atwater/Ailes/Rove - inspired schtick of the Shrubbery.
