The scam works in two primary ways. Firstly, retailers artificially inflate prices of goods in the months before Black Friday in order to make the subsequent discounts look good in comparison. Secondly, even if shoppers do manage to grab some genuine discounts, they will invariably buy another product that has a 98 per cent mark up value.
Despite the hype, despite the coupons, despite the “friends and family deals,” the profit margins of large retailers are actually higher during the holiday period. The idea that big stores are losing out in order to provide Americans with massively discounted goods is a complete hoax.
Canada’s second-largest burger chain says its beef is now free of hormones, antibiotics and preservatives.
Rich Smith, executive director of Alberta Beef Producers, admitted there is some consumer demand for beef with fewer hormones and no steroids. However, he says calling it "better" is misleading because the beef hormones ranchers usually use are miniscule and found to be safe to human health. The use of hormones also has environmental benefits, because more cattle can be raised on less land, Smith said. "We don't think it's better beef. We think it's beef from cattle that are raised differently than the vast majority of cattle in Canada and the United States," Smith told CBC News.
Number of Visits That Will Be Made To Canadian Food Banks This Year
More people across the country are using food banks compared to last year. The annual HungerCounts report released by Food Bank Canada on Tuesday, revealed 841,191 people used a food bank in March — an overall 1 per cent increase since 2013. Although the number may not seem that large upon first glance, the report found food bank use in six out of 10 provinces increased this year, and 37 per cent of those helped were children.
"The numbers continue to remain as they are and as more people come [to food banks] today, we were hoping to see the numbers fall," says Katharine Schmidt, executive director of Food Banks Canada.
Although many people may have considered the 2008 recession the low point for those in need, in fact, the number of people using food banks have kept increasing — in 2012, 872,379 went to a food bank in Canada, the highest number on record.
Another surprise this year was the use of food banks by single adults in Canada, Schmidt says. Food bank use by these individuals, who don't have a spouse or children, has doubled since 2001 from 29 per cent to 43 per cent this year.
She adds besides low incomes, many of these individuals are also dealing with long-term physical and mental health issues, and do not receive the amount of support they need, which could explain why they turn to food banks.
Going forward, the report has also outlined recommendations for policy makers and governments on how to make these numbers decrease. Affordable housing, investment in children's well-being and training Canadians to attain well-paying jobs are all top priorities.
But Schmidt says the easiest thing Canadians can do is to donate food themselves. Earlier this year, an Ottawa food bank was criticized for turning away Kraft Dinner, and Schmidt says, if you are planning to donate food, foods that you like to eat on a weekly basis — canned meats and fish, bread, and canned fruits and vegetables — are the best options for food bank users, too.

The video explores why younger women are rejecting Feminism ... even while women's rights are eroding.
Does the word have any meaning? Did it achieve its goals? What unfinished business is there? Would you call yourself a Feminist? Why are some women reluctant to call themselves feminists?
“I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is: I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat.”
~ Rebecca West
“A feminist is anyone who recognizes the equality and full humanity of women and men.”
~ Gloria Steinem Emma Watson's moving speech about gender equality
Watson, who was recently named the UN Women Goodwill Ambassador, also launched the "HeForShe" campaign, which asks men around the world to sign on as "inadvertent feminists," who inherently believe in equality for both genders. How can we affect change in the world, when only half of it is invited to participate, or feel welcomed in the conversation? She wasn't talking about women. Instead, she was specifically asking the other half of the population to get involved. "Men, I would like to take this opportunity to extend your formal invitation," she continued. "Gender equality is your issue too."
We should be less interested in the words she delivered during her 12-minute speech and more curious to see what she's going to do with the impressive platform she's been given.
UNICEF'S most recent report on child well-being in rich countries ranked Canada 17 out of 29 countries assessed, scoring 27-th in child obesity, 22-nd in infant mortality and 21-st in child poverty rates. Sadly, this isn't news. The House of Commons resolved to eradicate child poverty in 1989, but in late 2013, Statistics Canada reported that 967,000 children in this country still lived in low-income homes.
Canada needs a Federal Anti-Poverty Plan. But we still don’t have a plan. Why a Federal Anti-Poverty Plan? We need a plan that addresses systemic causes of poverty. The federal government is responsible under international human rights law to eradicate poverty. They control income security payments, tax benefits, pensions, and the vital funding for provincial/territorial health and social service programs. Committees from the House of Commons, Senate, and the United Nations have all said that Canada needs a Federal Anti-Poverty Plan. But we still don’t have a plan.

The first command, sometimes called the cultural mandate, is found in :
Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
The first part of the command is being fulfilled. The subduing of the earth involves rulership. We have been placed in charge of the earth as stewards. Our dominion should not be harsh; this verse is not a proof text to condone littering! To subdue means to cherish and bring out the full potential of the creation, not trash it.
The earth does not belong to us; it is the Lord's, including everything in it Ps. 24:1
The earth is the LORD's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
We are to care for and manage what has been given to us, and we are responsible for the results. A second biblical command appears in Genesis 2:15
And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
This was Adam's job description, and it is also a general model for us today.
Hebrews 2:8
Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.
Hebrews 2:8 states that God has put all things under our feet; we are still in charge. To work and care for the garden, or “dress and keep” it, meaning to make it orderly, productive, and beautiful. The clear conclusion is that we should indeed be concerned about the deterioration of the environment.
Preachers, politicians and CEOs need to be reminded of Mark 8:36
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
There is no profit in gaining the whole world and losing one's own soul. Presenting the gospel must have priority. If we love the Lord, however, we will not turn our backs on his artwork and gifts in the creation. The creation gives powerful testimony to God's glory; caring for his works is our responsibility. The environment is important because people are important. Their health and well-being depend on it.
"Why should we be concerned with a temporary, dying world?" In spite of sin, the creation remains a rich testimony to God's goodness. Stewardship of this silent witness is an act of worship. Our bodies are also temporary, but we care for them. Our minds will someday be made perfect, yet we spend our lives studying and exercising them. The same arguments apply to caring for the present, temporary earth. Some people may say that, "Environmentalism is just a form of the social gospel, or even worse, it is New Age pantheism."
True environmental care is respect for God's handiwork, not a return to idolatry. Stewardship is the recognition of humanity's high created position, not a pantheistic ruling out of our responsibility before God.

"I would like to ask all those who have positions of responsibility in economic, political and social life, and all men and women of goodwill: let us be 'protectors' of creation, protectors of God's plan inscribed in nature, protectors of one another and of the environment." ~ Pope Francis, Inauguration, 3/19/13 The Catholic Church brings a distinct perspective to the discussion of environmental questions, by lifting up the moral dimensions of these issues and the needs of the most vulnerable among us. This unique contribution is rooted in Catholic teaching calling us to care for creation and for "the least of these." Matthew 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. Of particular concern to the Church is how environmental problems and our response to these challenges will affect poor and vulnerable people at home and around the world.
This draws attention to the ethical dimensions of the ecological crisis, exploring the link between ecology and poverty and the implications of environmental degradation for human life and dignity.
Is there a conflict between making a profit and faith?
Is it moral to charge interest rates or is lending shameful?
Can you be wealthy and spiritual at the same time, or do you have to lead a life of austerity to be spiritual?
While there is something to be said in favour of living simpler lives, there is no conflict between faith and turning a profit. It is fine to make a living, we are meant to enjoy abundant lives. The conflict comes when we imagine ethics don't matter in business, and also when we make the mistake of equating wealth with happiness.
On ethics: What really matters is that we behave justly to one another: namely, we follow the Golden Rule which says that we should treat others as we would have others treat us. The abuses of capitalism are a violation of his principle.
he association said the survey found that more than half of employees — 51% — would find it difficult to meet their financial obligations if their paycheque were delayed by a single week. That was up from an average of 49% over the past three years.
For those aged 18 to 29, the number is even higher — 63% report living paycheque to paycheque.
The Church will continue to put up signs that they hope will be provoking message and will promote meaningful conversation regarding the issues of our time.

Would You Trade in Your Empty Beer Cans for a Burger at McDonald's? A new campaign by McDonald's and ad agency DDB Stockholm allows people to trade in their empty cans for burgers -- and even provides the recycling bag for it! The idea was to offer people -- specifically those attending summer festivals in Sweden -- an alternative way to pay for a burger while also helping the environment. "Youngsters don't always have so much cash, but sometimes they can get empty cans," a rep for the ad agency said. "So, accepting cans in return for burgers gets them to McDonald's and the cans to the recycling depot. Everyone's happy." What do you think of a campaign to swap empty beer cans for burgers? Would you participate if you could? Is it brilliant -- or just plain bogus?
A survey of 1,505 Britons conducted by a food firm called Genius Gluten Free, found that 29-year-olds had an average of 80 friends, keeping up with old acquaintances as well as co-workers and new friends. The average amount of friends that other age groups had was about 64.

Should the food bank be allowed to say no to junk?
Why is it considered a controversial move?
The question ought to be : Why should we give people poor quality food?
Everyone deserves to eat good quality food, even if they can’t buy it. It’s not right for food banks to give out unhealthy food that is full of fat, sugar and salt which will make them sick, which will increase the health care cost, something we all complain about. A good way to reduce that cost is to focus on preventive health care, i.e., good and healthy food.
Healthy Affordable Food Dried Beans And Lentils
Dried lentils and beans are the most bang for your buck when it comes to getting healthy food for cheap. In most grocery stores, you can get a 16 oz. bag for under $2.00. Lentils and beans are packed with protein and fiber -- a great substitute or accompaniment for the more expensive meat options -- and a low calorie one too. Lentils are an especially great option because they don't require any soaking time, and can be ready in just 20 minutes. Whole Wheat Pasta
We all know that pasta is an economical option. It doesn't cost much, and yet is the main ingredient in many dishes. But most of us tend to avoid it because it's been labeled as having no nutritional value (and many diets claim that it causes weight gain). But whole wheat pasta is a healthy option. It's made with whole wheat flour which hasn't been stripped of the nutritional germ. Whole wheat pasta is just as affordable as white pasta, but offers a good amount of protein and fiber. Whole Wheat
Potatoes
Many people think that potatoes are not a healthy option, but that's just because they're usually loaded with butter, sour cream and bacon bits. But potatoes, when cooked simply, make a healthy, tasty and economical option. And they offer fiber, protein, iron and potassium.
Canned Tuna
Canned tuna has always been a reliable and cheap option for protein. You can get a 3 oz. serving of tuna for less than a dollar and that serving will provide you with 13 g of protein. You'll want to watch your intake of this protein however, because it has been reported to have high levels of mercury.
Bulgur
Bulgur is a whole grain that doesn't get enough attention in many home cooks kitchen. It's often times used in taboulleh salad, though works in many other recipes. It has more protein, fiber and vitamins than white rice, and makes a satisfying side dish.
Eggs
Eggs have been coming back recently after suffering from an unfair reputation. Contrary to popular belief, eggs are not dangerous shells housing bad cholesterol. While they should be eaten in moderation, they are loaded with good proteins. Nearly 100 percent of the egg's protein is usable by your body. You can find eggs for just $2.00 a dozen (though many organic and cage-free options are more expensive).
Quinoa
While not as inexpensive as rice, quinoa is still an affordable option for a healthy side. It also works well in salads -- and is a filling ingredient. It's such a great source of protein (it is a complete protein) and is a good source of calcium, iron and fiber.
Tofu
Tofu has wrongly been labeled a vegetarian food. And while it is a great protein option for those who don't eat meat, it's an affordable option for meat eaters too.Tofu is a quarter of the price of meat in most areas, and is a versatile cooking ingredient.
Brown Rice
Brown rice is a whole grain and it's just as affordable as white rice, which has been stripped of its original nutrients. With a serving of brown rice you get fiber, protein and essential minerals such as magnesium and zinc. And when a one pound bag costs a little under $2.00, with 10 servings per bag, it's an economical option for healthy eating.

Would you share your medical information with Canada Post to continue home delivery?
Disability advocates are lashing out against a plan by Canada Post that will require people to provide a doctor's note who need home delivery service once community mailboxes are installed. Winnipeg city councillor Ross Eadie, who is legally blind and will need the weekly delivery, said the cost of a doctor's note can be a financial burden for many with disabilities on fixed incomes. The Manitoba League of Persons with Disabilities says the best person to determine what type of service is required is not a doctor, but the individual living with the disability.

Taking a nap can be good for you Grabbing a little shuteye in the middle of the day could help make you a better worker. But timing is everything.
Do you like to take a nap when you can?
>> Yes, it makes me feel refreshed >> No, it makes me groggy >> I'd like to, but then I can't sleep at night >> Other
While your boss may not appreciate the snoring in the office, the truth is that well-timed sleep actually boosts your effectiveness as a worker. "A brief mid-day nap can reduce levels of fatigue, improve reaction time, promote learning, and improve coordination," says Michael A. Grandner, Ph.D., instructor and a member of the Center for Sleep and Circadian Neurobiology at the University of Pennsylvania.
There is, however, a right and wrong way to grab some quick shuteye. Try to sleep as close to the middle of the day as possible, preferably 8 hours after you wake up, says Grandner, or else it will be more difficult to go to bed at night. Ideally your snooze should be 20 to 30 minutes--it's best for regulating brain functions and keeping you from feeling like you've been hit by a truck when waking up from deeper sleep.
