Blood Diamond

Just saw the movie Blood Diamond.

Over the past few years I've learned more about the concept of blood diamonds, but the movie seemed to confront me with the harsh reality that existed in African and other parts of the world and that still exists today.

Sometimes movies can change or renew your opinion on a subject. In this case, blood diamond has done both. If I ever buy or am given diamonds in the future (hummm, that would be nice) then I want to make sure they are legitimate. To further try and ensure their authenticity, I think I'd like to support Canada's diamond industry versus getting a diamond from out of country.

I'd pay more for a conflict free diamond.
