Dear eBay Canada,
It would be really nice if you could leave the Christmas advertising, reindeer and all other Christmas related stuff until after Remembrance Day.
I am a super loyal eBay user and I'm also a serving member of the Royal Canadian Air Force currently deployed in the Middle East. It would be very appropriate if you could just wait. You see… No one forgets Christmas… A lot of people forget about Remembrance Day. Or maybe you could remove the reindeer and Christmas stuff on Remembrance Day and put a Poppy up with "Lest We Forget".
It's just a suggestion, but it would be appreciated by many.
Thank you for listening.

Hi red_headed_goddess,
Thanks for the suggestion - I'll put it forward, for sure. As I'm sure you can appreciate, the online 'Holiday Season' is a bit different than brick-and-mortar businesses, as shipping needs to be incorporated into the equation. Losing about 11-12 days could have some negative effects not only for eBay, but also businesses who rely on this busy time of year. Typically speaking, this timeframe start November 1 - the same time that it starts at regular offline businesses.
Some provinces observe today as a Statutory Holiday, and a lot of folks are wearing poppies to keep today's purpose alive - which makes me think it's very much top of mind.
I, along with eBay Canada, thank you very much for your service.
Sincerely,
