DDB Canada and the B.C. Egg Marketing Board teamed up recently to build a life-sized fire truck in downtown Vancouver made entirely from egg cartons. The idea was to show people that cross-border shopping for eggs was costing the province $3 million in economic benefits, or enough to buy four new fire trucks.
