That's Not Mr. Peanut 

British Columbia has a new mascot... but he kind of smells:

The dumping of raw sewage into the Pacific Ocean was an issue one man wanted to take to an all-candidates meeting in the Victoria-Beacon Hill riding Friday morning, but the costumed crusader was not allowed in.

James Skwarok arrived dressed up as "Mr. Floatie," a two-metre tall turd representing POOP, People Opposed to Outfall Pollution.

He wanted to highlight Victoria's daily dumping of 120 million litres of raw sewage, but when he was barred from the meeting he said the refusal left him "a little bummed out."

Read the rest... packed full of poopy puns, and pictures of Mr. Floaty passing out toilet paper business cards. You really just can't make this shit up.
