THANK YOU WINNIPEG HUMANE SOCIETY
A very special thank you to The Winnipeg Humane Society for launching a billboard campaign to stop live horse exportation from Canada to other markets for slaughter.
Two billboards are now located on Pembina Highway and Portage Avenue in Winnipeg, Manitoba to raise awareness of this inhumane practice.
Manitobans and other Canadians are urged to sign a member of parliament sponsored petition to support this cause, and to write The Honourable Marie-Claude Bibeau, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food (Canada) along with your Member of Parliament.
