IllegalSigns.ca is a team of volunteers who fight illegal billboards and this is our blog. Half the billboards in Toronto are illegal - help us bring the vast, unlawful privatization of our public visual environment to an end.

These people have relationships that date back to the early 80s and even earlier.
