Won’t You Be My Neighbor?

Idea
Shoveling snow give you a case of the winter blues? Well of all companies, Canadian Tire has a cure for that. As part of their latest social campaign, the retailer surprised people in eight Canadian communities with shoveled driveways and free shovels engraved with simple instructions: shovel someone else’s driveway and pass it on. The shovels are being tracked on Twitter and Facebook as the brand compiles all content on its “Shovel It Forward” site
