The Bouvry slaughter plant in Alberta is currently closed, though whether that closure is temporary or permanent remains unclear. The plant in Quebec continues to operate.

You might be surprised that in many parts of Canada, independent butchers report receiving requests to slaughter horses alongside other livestock. To some, money is money — and an animal is simply meat so slaughter continues to thrive across Canada.

Ban Horse Slaughter continues to intervene directly — purchasing horses from kill buyers and from pens operated by First Nations Bands before they are shipped for slaughter. With the help of a foster network, we place horses into safe, permanent homes.

MARCH 2026: We are currently raising funds to purchase and support a small group of draft horses from a situation where a kill buyer has offered top dollar.

The costs extend well beyond purchase — transport, feed, veterinary care, and ongoing support.

Ban Horse Slaughter is 100% volunteer-run.

0% goes to salaries.
