Product placement
PC Health (a digital health platform/app) appears as a logo and name in a drone light show. It merely APPEARS as the subject of the creator's criticism regarding corporate advertising. Removing it would not change the video's content, which is a critique of Galen Weston and corporate spending. Loblaws (a grocery chain) is mentioned in the caption and implied by the context of Galen Weston, but it does not act.

Nah, Galen Weston needs to be stopped
Is that Loblaws coffee keeping me up?
Or is it the stress of paying for my health?
Can melatonin lose its effect?
