Having successfully snatched the wig of "best deals of the year" away from the duo of Boxing Day and E3, Black Friday in Canada has all the fun of the shopping without the hassle of the turkey coma. Some retailers are beginning their deals on Thursday, even.
The below deals are sorted by retailer. Note that if dealing with online orders, there may be delays in arrival due to an ongoing dispute between Canada Post and its union.
