Canadians Against Live Export – YYC is a dedicated group of volunteers who are committed to ending the live shipments of horses from Calgary International Airport, specifically horses destined to be slaughtered for human consumption in So. Korea and Japan.

Make no mistake about it, these horses are not treated with any where near the same respect that horses who are being shipped for competition, for example horses that are being shipped to and from Spruce Meadows in Calgary.

CALEYYC writes:

“We are trying to raise awareness of the plight of draft horses that are exported from Calgary (YYC) to Japan for slaughter. Regulations are frequently broken/ not enforced by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency during these shipments. Suffering is inherent in long distance transport, and YYC [Calgary International Airport] should not be involved in this cruel industry that sends horses half way across the world, crammed into crates without food and water, to be slaughtered on another continent.”

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.
