Tourism N.B. takes the fall for spelling error in foliage ad: "
The ad points out the richness of the colours of New Brunswick scenery by superimposing the names of colours such as vermilion and mahogany over images of autumn leaves.

However, the word 'mahogany' is misspelled as 'mahagany.'

Fredericton-area resident Eric Johnson saw the commercial twice, and said he couldn't believe his eyes. 'I guess the message we're sending out is: Come to New Brunswick, where we can't spell.'"
