A correction of sorts: There are 10 Canadian ads on the TV shortlist, not nine. The one that was missed is "Puck Dodging," a Nike spot by Taxi Advertising and Design. The spot was incorrectly listed on the shortlist as a U.S. commercial.
Ten of course is still a dreadful performance and well below the 44 spots that were on the list last year. But it's better than nine.
Taxi's New York office also has two spots on the shortlist: "bus" and "family function" for Amp'd Mobile.
Speaking of Canadian connections, Crispin Porter Bogusky has done very well at this year's festival, especially in the Internet category. The agency, which is 49% owned by Toronto-based MDC Partners, was named interactive agency of the year and took grand prix in the cyber category.
