There is a rumour on Facebook

that if you don't agree with the commercial Christmas shopping - the malls, the canned music, the fake jolliness of retail - all you have to do is not buy gifts.  People think they cannot get away with this, but they can according to Liz James of Saskatoon - because they did it and survived. That's right folks these rebels simply informed their families that they would not be purchasing commercial gifts and did not want to receive any either.

Furthermore this family reported that you can organize Christmas on your own terms and you will not be jailed or even ostracized (usually).  This is radical. Christmas on your own terms! Who knew?
