Time to be proactive ... we have a BC minister about to initiate debate with a second reading of Bill C-322 … effectively it has the following consequences.
14.1 No person shall import horses for slaughter for
human consumption.
18.1 No person shall export from Canada, or send or
convey from one province to another, horses for
slaughter for human consumption.
9.1 No person shall import or export a horse meat
product for human consumption or send or convey a
horse meat product for human consumption from one
province to another.

……… we already know that the anti-slaughter lobbyists have been successful in the USA. Passage of this Bill opens the doors (give them an inch, they'll take a mile) for others to dictate how YOU manage the livestock that you own.
For those of you in the SW corner of Saskatchewan, Please take a moment to contact David Anderson (Cypress Hills--Grasslands, Saskatchewan) at ~~ [email protected]. ~~ to explain to him the negative impact that the passage of this Bill will have on the horse's welfare. As stockmen and stockwomen we do our best to insure that our animals are healthy and well cared for. Mother Nature and Human intervention does not always co-operate and there will always be injuries beyond healing, conformational development with associated pain, as well as disposition problems that put people and other animals in danger.
