Happy bunnyfestivus! No, not actually. It’s called Easter, and Lydia Lovric wants you and the stores where you shop to know that!
Lydia is a regular guest writer here, and her latest column, first appearing in the Winnipeg Sun, is now posted as a guest writers’ column in our columnist section.
Here’s a snippet:
The Easter Bunny has apparently hopped its way out of shopping malls in order to make way for the more inclusive Garden Bunny or Peter Rabbit.
In the latest bid to make all things politically correct, the fluffy white bunny has been given a makeover by some American malls so as not to offend certain customers. Easter eggs and Easter baskets are now just baskets and eggs (albeit very colourful eggs) and sending kids on an Easter egg hunt may leave them completely dumbfounded.
Closer to home, it’s only a matter of time before malls across Canada adopt this new policy since we’ve already done away with most things Christmas. Nativity scenes have been replaced with holiday trees and Santa Claus (just don’t tell mall managers that Santa means Saint). And clerks all croon the generic “Season’s Greetings” or “Happy Holidays” even when customers lay down hundreds of dollars on Christmas gifts.
