Spot Ads, […] says the advertisement does not violate its standards.

There are rules, and there are ethics.

Is it lawful to put up a sign like this? Sure.

Is it right? Nnnnnnope.

We should make things as financially painful for this company as possible. Scope out all of their signs, then do a blitz across their clientele, accusing them of going with an anti-Canadian advertiser. Try and make this hit the news, with those other businesses being “interviewed”. Hit them right in the pocketbook.
