If you have been following along you are likely aware that Canada allows for the slaughter of horses within Canada. Horses are routinely slaughtered for human consumption, some of the meat is sold within Canada and much of it is shipped to other markets including the European Union. Yes really.
You may also be aware that horses are shipped live to Japan and South Korea to be slaughtered (and eaten) there, and that the conditions they endure are inhumane.
If you’ve been following along you are likely aware that the slaughter houses in Canada take the word of any one selling an equine to them, that they are the rightful owner. There are not any checks and balances in place, as a result…
You are also likely aware that horses are often slaughtered the same day they are sold to a slaughter house which means that in some cases stolen horses have been butchered for meat before the owner even knows their horses are missing.

There is NOT currently any kind of recognized equine identification system in place within Canada BUT Equine Canada is looking at the possibility of changing that — and they want to hear from you.
Do you want to see a nationwide Equine Identification System in place?
If so PLEASE send them an email and let them know you support their proposal.
This tracking system would cover not only registered/pedigreed horses but also horses of unknown backgrounds.
It literally takes 2 seconds to state that you oppose horse slaughter and that you support the implementation of a Nationwide Equine Identification System.
You can read an outline of their proposed system by clicking here.
The full outline of the proposed Equine Identification System is here.
Please remember there is a deadline in place but it only takes a few seconds to send an email stating you are opposed to horse slaughter and in favour of an Equine Identification System.

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.
