Dull Men's Club

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

From what I can see Gildan shirts are made in Canada. Saying they use "pretty bad sweatshops" is a pretty inflammatory accusation. Please either provide some documentation or take this down.
Ok:

A little more looking reveals that Glidan was one of the first textile businesses accredited by the Fair Labor Association, a nonprofit created during the Clinton administration to monitor and verify labor practices worldwide.
But you've got a map with dots on it.
An organization funded by the companies it monitors.
Srsly? Not saying you're wrong but could you share your research that led you to that? Wikipedia says it's "a non-profit collaborative effort of universities, civil society organizations, and businesses," founded by a government-created task force that included apparel companies and human rights groups.
