Jobs to manufacture billions of popsicle sticks are back in Canada

There are lots of case of manufacturing jobs being outsourced to China. This is one case where jobs come back from China to Canada. Have a watch, CBC News – Importing jobs – 9 years after moving to China, a Canadian company finds it’s cheaper to reopen back home – May 20, 2011

According to the news report, the issues are:

* Quality Control

* Higher prices in China (compare to before)

* Rising cost of shipping (with the price of oil)

(Note: I can’t seem to find a working link for Global Sticks. I am pretty sure I found a working site on 20th May)
