Now's your chance to engage directly and publicly with selected manufacturers (Ahava and Keter) and Canadian retailers (Walmart, Canadian Tire, The Bay and Home Depot). Connect with Unsettling Goods on Twitter and use the hashtag #UGchoosepeace to:

  • Ask manufacturers to properly label their products as "Made in the occupied Palestinian territories."
  • Engage with retailers that sell Ahava and Keter. Let them know you don't want to see these products in their stores.
  • Re-tweet United Church partner tweets so your followers hear directly from partners.
  • Discuss the Unsettling Goods campaign.
  • Correct misinformation by directing others back to correct information on these official Unsettling Goods webpages or the Q&A in particular.
