PROPOSED BILL TO BAN LIVE EXPORT OF HORSES TO SLAUGHTER
If passed Bill C-355… prohibits the export by air from Canada of live horses for the purpose of being slaughtered or fattened for slaughter and — again, IF passed — it will make changes to related amendments to certain Acts.
WHY BILL C-355?
Horse slaughter for human consumption is legal within Canada and currently, two plants, one in Alberta and another in Quebec are slaughtering horses for that purpose.
In addition, Canada allows for the transportation of live horses to other countries including Japan to be slaughtered for human consumption.
FIRST READING OF THE BILL
On September 19, 2023, Tim Louis, Liberal MP for Kitchener-Conestoga announced the introduction of a private member’s bill, Bill C-355 AKA the Prohibition of the Export of Horses by Air for Slaughter Act.
THANK YOU MP LEWIS.
From the bottom of our hearts we also want to thank Leah Taylor Roy, Liberal MP for Aurora – Oak Ridges – Richmond Hill for her efforts in bringing this Private Member’s Bill forward.
