I do not boycott Wall-Mart, but I do not like shopping there. Alot of their stuff is overstock or rejects from the factory. Same thing with Winners/TJMaxx/HomeSense. As far as the "out-sourcing" of manufacturing, yes that does happen. And in terms of our standard of living, could be considered "slave-labor", becuase they make a few american dollars per day. But if you put their wage into the context of what the rest of country is making, it is probably a better than average wage. If you choose to view it exploitation, I guess that is really up to you, I look at as allowing people to support their families and make a living, in countries where they normally would/could be struggling.
I do not buy Tommy Hilfiger. Just do not like the clothes.
Hate Air Canada, would much rather fly WestJet.
Hate Shaw, but don't live on my own, so no satelite for me.
Well, I would boycott the CRTC if I could, but I can't get away from it really.
TBS. I hate that channel.. Severe censorship of anything and everything. Ted Turner sucks.
I guess thats all. Can't think of anything else.
