To promote it's annual support of Earth Hour the WWF worked with Zoom media to create specially designed illuminated washroom boards to run in Toronto. From a certain distance, the board featured a nighttime skyline of the city. As a person approaches the board the skyline goes dark an the message appears.

Given Canada's ever growing obsession with pro bono ads I think we can safely say this never ran and that is the mens washroom at FBC.
