It actually has an Instagram handle barely visible on the top poster and it works. I think this is real.

The metal plate has gibberish engraving. I don’t see why this would need faking because there was a recent boycott campaign against Loblaws grocery stores in Canada but I guess its just laziness. or camera’s built in AI upscaling

It’s not fake. The handle on the top works, and the plate is from a real Canadian company

It’s not gibberish. Just shit job on the engraving. The info on the right matches the label on the left.

Top is company, the long mostly gibberish looking one is the serial or id number.

It clearly says Tardif Métal Inc, which according to google constructs steel, electrical, and commercial structures so it kinda tracks. AI generated images aren’t getting that kind of context nailed bro.

If I had to guess OP either has a phone that does AI upscaling on photos taken with the camera and it couldn’t handle the curved and reflective surface while trying to sharpen the text to be legible, or it’s just an optical illusion due to the aforementioned curve and reflectivity.

Inb4 you tell me that I’m AI.

This is so strange to me that I had to run it through a few AI detector sites and they all seem to have a high human probability somehow. No idea how accurate those sites are though. Perhaps it is a real image, but ran through a bad AI upscaler? Or maybe OP could have taken this picture using a phone that has AI upscaling automatically applied to their photos like the Google pixel for example.

I’m Canadian and it looks fine, what am I missing? The @handle? People tag posts and signs all the time.

Edit: looking back now I do see artifacts from the modern flagship post processing but I’m so used to it in my own photos that it’s not a marker of being artificial to me.

It doesn’t? The text manufacturer plate under the sign looks worn, but is still both legible and makes sense. Tardif Metal Inc. is an actual company based out of Quebec and this pic was taken in Toronto, Ontario. A lot of Ontario’s infrastructure is made in Quebec. If this was AI-generated, such information wouldn’t add up.

I don’t see anything else than can be mistaken for AI. Edit: Like others said, the pic was likely just poorly upscaled.
