If you’re living in Canada, you can avoid today’s shopping craziness, которые в U.S. is known as “Ð§ÐµÑ€Ð½Ð°Ñ Ð¿Ñтница” — the day-after-Thanksgiving, start-of-the-Christmas-shopping-season, mega-sale shopping day.
ЗдеÑÑŒ, в Канаде, it’s just a regular work day.
But if you want to take the no-shopping thing one step further, ÑÐµÐ³Ð¾Ð´Ð½Ñ ÐšÑƒÐ¿Ð¸Ñ‚ÑŒ Ðичего День.
Originally conceived by Vancouver artist and activist Тед Дейв (here’s a brief history of Buy Nothing Day) and now promoted by the Vancouver-based Adbusters organization, Buy Nothing Day is an international protest against consumerism.
Как говорит Adbusters, “There’s only one way to avoid the collapse of this human experiment of ours on Planet Earth: we have to consume less.”
От Adbusters’ Ñайт:
We’re asking tens of millions of people around the world to bring the capitalist consumption machine to a grinding – if only momentary – halt.
We want you to not only stop buying for 24 чаÑов, но отключить Ñвои огни, televisions and other nonessential appliances. Мы хотим, чтобы вы оÑтавить Ñвой автомобиль, turn off your phones and log off of your computer for the day.
We’re calling for a Ramadan-like fast. From sunrise to sunset we’ll abstain en masse, not only from holiday shopping, but from all the temptations of our five-planet lifestyles.
Ð’ Канаде, ЕÑÑ‚ÑŒ Ðичего день Купить ÑÐ¾Ð±Ñ‹Ñ‚Ð¸Ñ Ð² Гвельфов (ON) и Монреаль, but you don’t need to go to an event to honor the day — you can just stay home!
