Maclean’s: Canada is Go-To of Horse Meat
“These activists are trying to change that.
The Canadian Horse Defence Coalition is waging a court battle to end Canada’s role as an exporter of live horses and frozen horsemeat for human consumption.”
Marie writes:
Thank you Canadian Horse Defence Coalition for all you do to help so many!
AND thank you to Maclean’s Canada for running this article to help raise awareness.
Canadians of courrse recognize Maclean’s magazine but for those reading from outside of Canada, this is a nationally recognized publication that was founded in 1905, and reports on Canadian issues such as politics, pop culture, and current events.
Mann had read the Canadian animal-health regulations which require horses over 14 hands high to be shipped solo in containers large enough to allow them to stand in a natural posture.
But she had routinely observed groups of three or four large horses being loaded into one crate with ceilings so low their ears poked through the top.
“There was no way they had enough room,” she says.
She condensed her footage into a three-minute YouTube video and in 2012 gave it to Sinikka Crosland at the Canadian Horse Defence Coalition, an animal rights group lobbying to stop the slaughter of horses.
Here, thought Crosland, was the perfect opportunity to raise awareness for their cause.

CANADA SLAUGHTERS HORSES FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION
It may be hard for some to believe that tens of thousands of horses, including pets, are routinely slaughtered in Canada, for human consumption.
Some of the meat is consumed in Canada and much of it is shipped to the European Union and other markets, including Japan.
The barbaric slaughter of horses is currently not legal in the United States, BUT horses, including pets and ex-racehorses, from the United States are shipped to Canada and to Mexico to be slaughtered.
In addition Canada allows for the transportation of live horses to Japan, to be slaughtered for human consumption, and unfortunately the transportation of horses destined for slaughter within Canada, and by air, is far from humane.
