Painting "OVER" their logo, and the big red letters "Air
Canada" stretching along the length of the fuse...

Like with a roller & house paint! (!)

yep aircraft are ofen painted by roller.

Unfortunately, they also have the paint scraped with sharp-edged

sharp-edged implements or aren't provided proper tools and supervision by
their cheapskate overlords.
