Your Dad Joined the Canadian Club. Now it’s Your Turn.

When I was young, anything your dad did was uncool and not to be imitated. Things are different today (I hear every mother say); this ad exhorts young people to drink Canadian Club Whisky because their fathers drank it.

There’s nothing actually wrong with this ad. It’s mystifying to me how the it’s going to help Canadian Club sell whiskey. Maybe I just don’t understand today’s youth. It’s kind of sad if this is the kind of advertising they respond to.

Damn right.
