well there is this:http://www.transfair.ca/

but of course there is this:
“In 2006, more than 450 tonnes of coffee sold in Canada with fair trade labels were not officially certified. That has fair trade advocates calling for tougher rules.”
http://www.cbc.ca/news/background/fair-trade/
and this:
“in general only a maximum of 20 percent of people would be willing to pay more for Fair Trade goods. A huge majority of people would rather pay a lower price despite the negative social and environmental consequences of doing so. Partly because of these limits many activists have dismissed Fair Trade as a product for a niche market that will not lead to real social change. ... Within the Fair Trade movement the push now is to insure the quality of Fair Trade products both as a means of justifying higher prices and enticing non-ethical consumers who want a tasty luxury.”
