On the road Activism
6 Concordia students are taking a cross-Canada roadtrip targeting small towns with Wal-Marts. Their mission is to spread awareness about Wal-Mart's exploitive labour policies and agressive shut-downs of local business, or as they put it the "Three pillars of Wal-Mart's success"Pillar 1: Exploitation of Labour and violation of International Labour Laws and Regulations abroad leading to Human Rights violations in over 25 countries.
Pillar 2: Discriminatory and Poor Labour Standards and Practices in North America.
Pillar 3: The Domination and Dismantling of the economic and socio-economic fabric of small communities in Canada by aggressive Business practices like "Predatory Pricing" and anti-organized labour policies.
