AVON, Is The Ding Dong Calling!

I emailed AVON, and finally got a response. It was the same response that everyone got. They never answered my question, "Is your product produced within 100 kilometers of Edmonton?".

Nope they sent out a standard "cover your ass" email. Monster does an excellent dissection of the email.  

A while back I sent an E-mail to the Avon people about my displeasure of their GREEN attitude towards the Alberta Oil Sands.
Message:So you would rather use blood oil from Saudi Arabia or Nigeria rather then Alberta`s clean oil. That’s fine. I will just have to tell you that your products are no longer welcome in this household and any that are already here are now in the trash.

Monster and I got the exact same email. Go to his site to read the email, it is enlightening in AVON's obvious lack of knowledge of Alberta and the Oil sands. Trees? Hello AVON, trees don't grow in oil soaked sand. You are supporting more trees being killed

Christmas concert tonight was wonderful. My oldest rocks with his trombone! I am so proud of him. Bake sale went well... the band needs the money to be able to go perform at Disney World. How come  there is no money for bands, and no money for trips to Quebec? Who is getting all the federal dollars in support of arts and language. I can attest to the fact that we have paid FULL price for my kids to go to Quebec and Seattle (jazz band). We have had no tax deduction. I don't want special treatment, just fair treatment.

Where is all the "cultural arts" money going? Not to kids in junior/high school. What I have seen, is that we pay full price for any extra curricular activity our kids want to take, and the supposed "artists" demand grants for their survival.  Get a job, you are not special.
