flurry of holiday guests.

leave your home or office?

Ivs catalogue shopping and
according to the Canadian
Wildlife Federation (CWF), whose

sent to homes and _ businesses
across Canada, it’s becoming an
extremely popular way for people
to do their shopping before the
holiday rush.

Richard Leitch, general manager
of CWF, says people who use the
catalogue have nothing but praise
for it and the benefits it provides:
“A person simply has to phone,.
mail, or fax their order and the
test is up to us.””
