I've been trying to imagine the process, the preliminary
design briefs, early concept meetings ....
(I bet they had lattes and chocolaty croissants)
The genesis of this cruel, visually illiterate, idea impoverished cabal.
The meetings where they sat about on uncomfortable designer chairs
and discussed this logo, the meetings where they agreed
that it was, irresistible - brilliant, absolutely the best one.
Those wankers chose, decided, and who concluded the business are now
you know, ...the ones who have conspired to impose
Who are they ? (secretly, I think some of them work where I do)
The immediate cost to the innocent citizen was roughly
$500,000.00, but the long term effect, will be incalculable.
A branding Chernobyl ladies and gentlemen, whose half-life
of embarrassment ,will be roughly 10,000 years. About
the same length of time it will take us to get over the big O.
Ahhh, here's the file now, ohh look... it's likely the
same folks, who approved these other graphic amusements.
You know, it really does look like somebodies sister or cousin, or
boyfriend designed the thing. Someone who went to desktop
publishing summer camp. Where's my bloody hammer ......
Montreal's new "groovy" logo .... aaaagggrrrhhhHHhhi ,
it's the one below
my eyes are bleeding .... aaagghhhhh...

Those wankers chose, decided, and who concluded the business are now
infamous, and will probably remain, resolutely invisible (who can
blame them ?) a committee of amateurs, administrators
and sycophants,
you know, ...the ones who have conspired to impose
this new, "improved", and somehow, impossibly,
intergalactically insipid civic logo upon us.

the last comment was removed, not because it was wrong, but because it was a trifle, err graphic.If you'll excuse the pun. Sorry Sean ;-)
just another reason for me to hate montreal and it's fabulously ugly designs and architecture!
Come on...it has some nice buildings haha, Granted not many but some do stand out.
Now about the logo... you are all looking at the negative side only. Shame on you. look at the bright side, with an abomination like that, it's enough to scare criminals away! Ole!
i also heard that our national currency will be changed into smarties.
The logo looks like something you'd see on an "Air Mexico" plane. =/
I wonder how this guy would feel about our oh so fabulous logo (feel the sarcasm in my text.)

this is lizbeth for you mr.pescado ;P
After shaking my head about this for a month or two, I think I've come across the "designer's" (gasp... realy? Should I even call him/her/it that?) inspiration. Check it out:

Granted they're not much classier, but a serious step up from Montreal: "land of lego".
