Glasses for everyone
A regular pair of eye glasses in Canada can cost anywhere between 500 - 1000$. For those who live on a $400 a month welfare cheque, wearing glasses and seeing clearly is not an accessible option. For poor parents who have multiple children in need of glasses, this could be a financial nightmare.

Black Friday emerged in the U.S. to kick off the holiday season following Thanksgiving. While it hasn't taken hold in Canada the same way as in the US, it has grown into a legitimate event in Canada. Montreal shoppers are hoping to find the next greatest deal. But not everyone chooses to consume that day. A group of people are adopting the buy nothing day, as a way to counter consumerism.
