November brings cooler temperatures, and recently, moustaches on men all over the world.
The ‘staches are due to “Movember” — an awareness drive to drum-up support for prostate cancer research and programs around the world.
Thousands of people are expected to take mustaches to work, play, and elsewhere in Movember.
Last year, almost a 120,000 Canadians helped raised more than $22-million for Prostate Cancer Canada.
World-wide, $176-million dollars was raised through the initiative.
One in seven men ends up with prostate cancer, while 50 per cent of men get cancer of some sort during their lifetime.
