Since the first diamond deposit was discovered in the Northwest Territories in 1991, Canada has become the world’s third largest diamond supplier rivaling the industries of Russia and Botswana.

Blood Diamonds

The extent of the diamond deposits that have been found (with new ones still being uncovered in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut as well as far south as northern Saskatchewan), as well as the quality of the diamonds have put Canadian diamonds in high demand, rivaling those found in Africa. However, warlords and rebel armies in countries such as Liberia, Sierra Leone, Angola and the Ivory Coast have largely taken control of the industry and the clandestine sale of diamonds funds their violent, illegal activities. They also don’t make for good employers and conditions in the diamond mines are hugely unethical and it was common practice of rebel armies to take the children who work in the mines to turn them into child soldiers.

For some time, it became nearly impossible to purchase a diamond from Africa that was not a dirty diamond or a blood diamond. While the countries that produced blood diamonds have for the most part been peaceful for a few years, there are still rebel armies, warlords and civil wars being funded by the diamond industry in Africa. There is still so much unknown about the human rights violations and brutalities associated with blood diamonds.
