It's a free country, if someone wants to hold a contest that results in free labour they can do so. In fact, Restricting that in any way is anti-competitive and probably illegal.

Actually design competitions for building design is very restricted by the AAA. It is actually illegal to not follow the restrictions in Alberta and every other Province. I imagine that graphic designers just don't have the same protections as a self regulated profession, which is unfortunate. The link below shows how architectural design competitions are regulated in Alberta.
