#Canadians - Please sign this #petition & share it widely!

Behind coffee, one of the most valuable global commodities, dwell the realities of poverty, with 44% of coffee farmers living in such conditions. So why not support them by buying from small roasters who have direct contact with them? #FairTradeCoffee #SupportSmallFarmers

💰 #CAP reform favours corporate giants while leaving small farmers behind. It's time to prioritise people and planet over profit! 🌍 #SupportSmallFarmers Vote against #CAP reform @PetarVitanovMEP !
