Halloween Payback
Halloween takes a new twist on the West Island. For those entrepreneurial kids out there, Moms who can’t stand the mounds of candy going into their kids’ systems, or people who like to make a buck, dentist Dr. Farnaz Lari will pay you a toonie for every kilo of Halloween candy that you bring in today. If that wasn’t incentive enough, Dr. Lari will also give out free light-sabre toothbrushes.
She’s not a grinch after all, she does hope the kids will eat some of their favorites and turn in the rest. In her daily practice she gets to see the ongoing deterioration on kids’ teeth caused by candy so she’s spearheading this anti-decay movement.
The candy will get weighed in and the kids will get a toonie for each kilo – plus the toothbrush. The candy must not be opened (no bites!). The candy will be donated to the West Island Assistance Fund for their Christmas Basket Program.
