Special thanks to Sarah Stewart and Patti Lippert for making us aware of this story.

Equestrian Canada warns that due to income losses associated with Covid-19 many horses in Canada could be in jeopardy of being disposed of.

Disposal methods include horse auctions where many horses often end up in the hands of “meat” AKA “kill” buyers who sell horses to slaughter plants in Canada to be killed for human consumption.  Kill buyers also buy directly from owners

CHEK news reported on a story involving the rescue of 31 ponies that were destined to be sold at an auction in Alberta but instead money has been raised to save and re-home these ponies.

Rebecca Sanesh of Humanity for Horses Rescue and Rehab spearheaded this rescue and addtitional funds will be needed for feeding and veterinarian care.  PLUS Humanity for Horses has other equines in constant need of care.

Learn more about the story, watch a short video at CHEK NEWS here.

Once again we’d like to thank Jann Arden for all she does to help support the banning of horse slaughter for human consumption.

American horses are routinely exported to Mexico and to Canada to be slaughtered.

Horses raised in Canada, including pet horses and discarded race horses, are slaughtered in Canada and horses are also shipped live from Canada to Japan to be slaughtered there.

The Canadian Horse Defence Coaltion is currently suing the Canadian Food Inspection Agency for blatantly ignorning international shipping regulations and allowing horses to be shipped in conditions that are inhumane.

VERY special thanks to Patti Lippert for all that she does for so many.

Patti is tireless in her efforts to support horse AND donkey rescues.  She’s also constantly working to help protect wild horses, and is a dedicated advocate for the banning of horse slaughter within Canada and beyond.

Patti not only gives of her time but she’s constantly donating funds and in this case she’s commissioned a design for a T-shirt!

Thank you Patti – you are AMAZING.  M xo

Maclean’s: Canada is Go-To of Horse Meat

Maclean’s: Canada is Go-To of Horse Meat

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.

UPDTE NOVEMBER 2021:  

Back for the first time since JUNE of 2020. Once again available for a limited time.

Proceeds from this t-shirt go to helping our friends at Horse Rescue Fund.

Horse Rescue Fund is dedicated to raising funds and distributing those funds to equine rescues and sanctuaries in Canada and the United States that are registered charities — or not.

Horse Rescue Fund also recognizes the need, especially during these turbulent times, to help  individuals who are trying to do the right thing, but struggling to care for their equines.

There are many cases where what might end with a beloved horse being sent to slaughter, euthanized, sold or relinquished can be prevented by a gift of funds.

Horse Rescue Fund  strives to raise awareness about the necessity of education on all aspects of equine ownership.

Through education Horse Rescue Fund believes that the number of horses being slaughtered for human consumption, and the number of other horses in need, will diminish.

Horse Rescue Fund also supports efforts to save (evacuate, vet,  stable and feed) equines during and after natural disasters such as forest fires, flooding, mudslides, etc.

T-SHIRTS - FOR A LIMITED TIME

Look closely and you’ll notice that actress Kate Drummond is wearing a  limited edition T-shirt.  (Sorry it’s sold out BUT click the button below for another very special t-shirt.)

Proceeds from the sales of this T-shirt go towards banning the slaughter of  horses within Canada and beyond. 

Kate posts…  “I’m just a girl, sitting in the middle of racks of couture, asking one of them to be the perfect dress 😉💕🙏 Thank you Jordan Stewart for the delicious afternoon of dress up, friendship-building and laughs. I am so excited to wear your masterpiece at the CSAs this month. 🔥

UPDATE: JANN’S ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER – WORKED!

Canadian icon Jann Arden speaks out against the inhumane transport of horses to Japan for human consumption, and lends her voice to the Canadian Horse Defence Coalition.

Many, if not most Canadians may not realize that horses are routinely slaughtered within Canada. Some of the horse meat is consumed in Canada and much of it is exported to the European Union and other markets for human consumption there.

Horses are also inhumanely shipped by air to Japan to be slaughtered for human consumption.

Thankfully the press and others are lending their voice as Jann Arden speaks out.
