Students will be creating giant 7s in a move to generate more publicity over the bay, which has also been supported by provincial governments in the Maritimes.

Other universities taking part include Mount Allison in Sackville, N.B., McGill in Montreal, the University of Calgary and the University of British Columbia.
The global competition is vote-based and people can go online to vote.
