I have a beef against diamonds, too. The problem is that nobody else has shown any interest in developing these northern communities. They've been stagnant and hopeless for generations, in large part because of the things white people did to them. Now a group is coming in that will be putting money into the community in ways that should be manageable, giving some twenty thousand people a way of earning an honest living that they haven't had in decades.

I came to the conclusion some time ago that if I ever got any diamonds again, I wanted them to be taken from heirloom jewelry and reset, rather than further supporting the cartels. I'm not sure if a Canadian supply would change my mind on that, but it might.
