The steering committee of the Quebec, fair trade town initiative continues its efforts to obtain the Fairtrade Canada designation of a fair trade town.
After two years of action, most of the steps required to receive the designation are now completed. At this time, members of the steering committee work to receive the support of their community (businesses, community, and religious organizations) as well as the elected representatives of Quebec City.
It is always possible to signify your support by signing our support list online by clicking here. Also visit the initiative’s website by clicking here.
