“We’re going against our own Canadian values.”

    We don’t use slave labour in Canada. We just ignore a whole shitload of people who slip through the cracks because of little opportunity and they end up drug addicted in the center of most small towns and cities. We are morally superior. /s

      Not or mention that we were all OK with slave-made shoes, clothes, appliances, toys, etc. As long as our consumer habits are satisfied.
