Salut Fair Trade until next time
Monday, February 8, 2010 at 10:02PM It is with some disappointment that I sent Transfair an email to end my licensee as of 2010. While I support the movement most of my clients were indifferent. Perhaps I got into this too soon, whatever the case I must question the whole movement not the underlying raison d'etre of fair trade but the number of staff required to support it, do we really need all these expensive canadian salaries on the transfair payroll to support developing countries who represent most of the fair trade commodities. I would prefer if we employed students in Canada to do transfairs work not full time staff in Ottawa, my 2 cents. I would welcome your view.
