Ontario Businesses Are Battling It Out In An Epic ‘Sign War’ (PHOTOS)

People are really going for it!

Contributing Writer

The trend, which according to CTV was started by a Sarnia radio host, was created to help to give struggling businesses social media exposure during the pandemic. Now, participating businesses like Dairy Queen and Speedy Glass are trying to one-up the other and it's turned into an all-out feud.
