Election swag: The NOPE t-shirt

During the election campaign, I mocked up a Canadian version of the famous Obama poster in Adobe Illustrator:

and my friend Chris and I put them on some t-shirts for a laugh. There have been many spoofs of the Obama poster, here’s the Canadian version.

The shirts were featured in the special election issue of Macleans, the Hill Times and Embassy. A lot of people have been asking us if we have any more of them. We printed up a bunch of them to keep costs low and we have a few left hanging around.

I hear that one of the most popular uses of this internet fad is to sell t-shirts so since we still have a handful left, I thought I’d give it a shot.

The shirts are $20 each (+$3 shipping)
