And yet Joe Fresh is still in business, Canadians were outraged for about 5 minutes after this happened, then went on to put it out of memory, this story should never have died with those victims.
-
Wow.. The Fifth Estate hits it out of the ballpark again.. excellent documentary.
-
The fifth Estate, please do not stop reporting. The type of professionalism you dedicate on your reports IS BEYOND.! l would've loved to be a professional journalist as you are guys!
-
This is quality - revisiting a previous story so it doesn't fade into the public subconscious
-
I am a Bangladeshi Canadian and here’s what you should do. Stopping to buy at Joe Fresh or Zara or H&M really doesn’t solve the problem. There has to be a minimum floor price for each garment item that ensures safety, ethics and fair wage for these people. As ACCORD came along to fix the safety of the workers there needs to be a new ACCORD to establish floor prices of each piece of garment produced.
-
People need to stop shopping at Lablaws and the other brands manufacturing there. Lablaws already gouges its customers for record profits, $621-million per quarter for 2.5 billion profits in 2023. There are other alternatives out there.
-
The richer got rich, and the poor poor, that is so sad that these women are living like this, shame, shame, shame🙏🏼
-
we need to band together and boycott these brands. these companies should be forced to compensate the victims.
-
My heart aches watching this and all those who died and were injured. Aruti/ Shumi is such a beautiful, dignified woman. You can see in her eyes though the pain she is suffering, both mentally and physically. The companies should still be supporting her, and the other people involved. .
-
8:31 l have not shopped Loblaws or Joe Fresh since Rana. Thanks for bringing it to our attention again. Money and power, when will it be human beings , poor or rich.
-
I feel that anyone that sells clothing should be transparent in where their products are coming from. Even small business. There are companies out there that sell bulk clothing and get the product from Bangladesh but no where on the site does it tell you where the products are made. Make it known for people to be able to make better decisions.
-
Thanks Mark ,journalist team ! The company, government ,industry rapping the workers of a just wage from the existing market ? Wow humanity ?
-
These companies and CEOs have already taken huge advantage of cheap labors from poor countries, at least at least give these poor people a safe working enviornment. If there is reincarnation, i wish god no matter what god turn these CEOs and corrupt government officials to these poor worker and let them get a dose of their own medicine.
-
You guys do some criminally underrated work. Keep doing the world's work these are an absolute necessity.
-
Thanks Fifth State . Yet another justice served to the people and showcase the power of journalism.
-
Buy second hand, there's enough clothing on the planet to last a century.
-
My heart went out for these poor people. The conditions in these 3rd world countries are so woeful that, it's a luxury to value lives there. Thank you for still remembering these poor souls! And Mark, you are unfazed to become the least welcomed person any where you went. Kudos to your courage! You probably think you may become part of the solution, but the factory owners and the stake holders more likely think you are part of a problem. I am sure that factory owner has had his MBA degree taken, as his answer sounded like straight out of textbook. If you continued, you may about to incite a revolution.
-
Very painful memory of Bangladesh
-
NEVER bought Joe fresh and fast fashion in general, I prefer to save a buy one good quality item a year then their garbage
-
All of M&S clothes are made in Bangladesh.
