STANDING COMMITTEE ON AGRICULTURE AND AGRI-FOOD

The brief mentioned in video, jointly submitted by Canadian veterinarians who may not all be practicing equine veterinarians but that doesn't mean that their opinion in the matter of animal welfare is not valuable.  [OPEN the BRIEF HERE.]

EXPERT TESTIMONY – HOW HORSES ARE SHIPPED

Conservative MP Lianne Rood who voted against Bill C-355 is adamant that the way in which horses are shipped to slaughter in no way differs from the way in which pet, show, sport and race horses are shipped.

We beg to differ and video  by CTV W5, CBC The National (scroll down) along with the expert witness in the video immediately below prove that horses destined for slaughter are not given the same care when shipped.

BILL C-355 BACKGROUND…

You may not be aware but  in addition to allowing the slaughter of horses within Canada for human consumption — Canada allows for the live transport of horses to other countries for the purpose of slaughter.

Make no mistake about it, the way in which horses destined to be slaughtered are transported, in no way shape or form resembles the great care, when being shipped by air shown to pet or show or sport horses – including racehorses.

Horses destined for slaughter are crammed in crates, often 3 or even 4 in crates designed for one horse – but don’t take our word for it – watch the full CTV W5 report here or a shorter 2 minute video below.

We are 100% volunteer & crowdfunded.
0% goes towards salaries. Yes, ZERO.

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.
