Things NOT made in China: ice cream from Canada
Chapmans ice cream was in the news recently. In a drive to make the workplace safer, Chapmans -- rather than merely enforcing a workplace vaccination requirement, decided to reward the workers who are vaccinated against Covid 19 by giving them a $1-an-hour pay raise. This goodwill gesture to its employees became the target of some moronic anti-vaxxer groups, which launched an on-line campaign to boycott Chapmans.
Luckily, or perhaps it was not luck but more like good sense prevailed in the end, as the anti-vaxxers' "boycott Chapmans" campaign backfired, the public poured in their support for Chapmans by email, phone calls, letters and on-line social media comments.
I've always bought Chapmans ice cream, and on this day, I bought a tub even though technically I didn't need it.
