Ivon Prefontaine, PhD's insight:
I attended a presentation by Siddarth Kara recently and was stunned by the depth of modern-day slavery. Humans are treated as disposable and ground down. They can be replaced. It is sad that it is so deeply embedded in economic supply chains. One answer might be to begin buying locally at farmer's markets and small local shops. |
And it is much closer to home than we think. There have been several people charged in Alberta with slavery related crimes. Despite this, we treat the topic as one that is resolved.
