Humane Treatment of Farmed Animals
Organization information
Humane Canada
Location: Ottawa, Canada
Summary
More than 800 million animals are slaughtered for food in Canada yearly. Canadians assumes government ensures the humane treatment of farm animals and are shocked to discover there are no regulations stipulating the treatment of animals on the farm, other than animal cruelty laws, used only to prosecute egregious abuse. To counter this, we negotiate directly with farmers to improve standards of care while advocating for tough laws through meetings, petitions and letter-writing campaigns
