Ontario Get's a New Logo

The Liberal government is under fire for spending $219,000 to replace Ontario's traditional trillium logo with a drastically new version.

Opposition critics are calling it a waste of money at a time when Premier Dalton McGuinty's government is running a deficit.
Pictures in the link below..

So we get a new logo that looks like it was pulled from the clipart gallery in Microsoft Frontpage and Dalton pays $219,000 for it..this doesnt include the projected millions its going to cost to replace everything that has the old logo currently.

Not to mention the new one looks like 3 dudes in a hot tub.

I don't have much of an opinion on this, other than the logo is somewhat reminiscent of the Biohazardous Waste Materials symbol...just a little bit, from a distance, and only if you squint.
