Where's My Goat?!


BAHHHHHHHHHH....................Filmmaker Christopher Richardson hit up Dundas square with a couple of goats to film bits of his upcoming documentary called, 'Where's My Goat' Richardson buys goats for third world families as thank-you gifts for his commercial clients. It's a fresh approach to promotional giveaways, but as the list of gifted goats grows, some clients question the existence of their goat and whether ethical gifts have the impact Christopher hopes. So Christopher decides to travel to Zambia to track down a client's goat and discover for himself if he is being innovative or naïve. However, this documentary has already caused some problems. While Richardson was answering some question for people about the film, a man from Zambia, Africa who lives in T.O, was confronting him about his motives and whether if he was actually helping families. The man kept saying C.R did not care. Richardson, made great effort to explain himself and stated that the littlest efforts mattered. The man ended up giving Richardson a chance and they shook hands and smiled. I might also make a cameo in the documentary which will air on The Discovery Channel.
