In a conversation with altocello , we talked about felling trees (as west-coast folks are wont to do) and I was reminded of what I thought was a PSA for tree felling safety - but actually a cartoon for the history of logging in British Columbia.

A teddy bear toss is a popular Christmas season promotion at many minor and junior hockey arenas throughout North America. Fans are encouraged to bring teddy bears to the game, and to throw them onto the ice when the home team scores its first goal. The toys are then gathered up to be donated as Christmas presents to hospitals and charities. In many cases, the players themselves personally donate some of the bears to children at area hospitals. The tradition is said to have started in Kitchener, Ontario at Kitchener Rangers games.
