Canada calls for a Walmart boycott

in #news7 years ago (edited)

Walmart has once again come under fire for an odd decision.

The American giant has decided to stop its involvement in a program that provided work for people with intellectual disabilities in the Province of Quebec.

For these hundreds of people with disabilities working at Walmart gave them a sentiment of pride and usefulness in a society where they have a tough time find their place.

It's hard for anyone to loose his job but in the case of people with intellectual disabilities the shock is even more brutal.

What makes this decision even more incomprehensible is that it only costed Walmart 6$ a day per employee as local job centers took care of travelling fees.

Many people on social media are now calling for a Walmart boycott but will it be enough for the American Giant to reconsider its decision?
