HORSES SHIPPED TO JAPAN TO BE SLAUGHTERED
Horses from Canada are crammed in crates and shipped to Japan to be slaughtered for human consumption.
Canadian and international shipping regulations are being blatantly ignored by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
Join us in demanding that this barbaric treatment of horses be stopped.
Keep in mind, that not all e-petitions are created equal.
This one has more clout than most.
Sponsored by MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith this petition will be presented to Members of Parliament in the House of Commons.
The more signatures, the more apt your elected officials are to pay attention. Please sign and share far and wide.

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.
