| | (Un)Fair Trade | | 2008-02-10 12:12:00 | | First, a little bit of background. Throughout its history, Canada has always been more a collection of regions than a united country. Animosity between the French and the English is so entrenched that it has become part of our national fabric. Government after government has focused its agenda on appeasing the roughly 26% of Canadians who identify themselves as ‘French’. Social engineering has been part of Canada’s makeup, with such endlessly flawed concepts as forced bilingualism forever causing wedges to form between our peoples. The old adage ‘give them an inch and they’ll take a mile’ has become a tangible thing in this country. Successive Eastern-based federal governments have planted ill-fated policies that have led us right to a perpetually failing situation.In the United States, the state of Alaska is geographically removed from the mainland.

| | Fair Trade, Organic Sneakers Hit the Market | | 2007-05-17 18:00:33 | | Veja shoes are a line of shoe that is produced in Brazil, using organic cotton, Amazonian rubber and chrome-free, organically tanned leather. Veja is a French company that is dedicated to being a socially responsible and environmentally friendly business and it shows in the quality of their products.
They’ve had organic, free-trade shoes before, but that was back before this website didn’t exist!
While the company may be French, we in North America can find them in the fashion hot-spots New York, Montreal and Los Angeles.
I’d suggest heading over to their website, but it is in French. Instead, hit up the TreeHugger site, where they have featured and evaluated Veja shoes a couple times!
