Buy Nothing Christmas. Former Adbusters managing editor Aiden Enns and his wife, after a move to Winnepeg, have formed the all-volunteer Buy Nothing Christmas movement, a "national initiative started by Canadian Mennonites who offer a prophetic 'no' to the patterns of over-consumption of middle-class North Americans. They are inviting Christians (and others) all over Canada to join a movement to de-commercialize Christmas and re-design a Christian lifestyle that is richer in meaning, smaller in impact upon the earth, and greater in giving to people less-privileged." Their hip website suggests an alternative Christmas, not necessarily one devoid of gifts ("When you do buy things, we encourage you to remember principles like buying locally, fairly-traded, environmentally friendly packaging, recycling or re-using, buying things that last, and so on. The main aim of this campaign is...to challenge our over-consumptive lifestyle and how it affects global disparities and the earth."), but one richer in meaning.
