A recap of our days on Parliament Hill
Our team recently visited with Members of Parliament and federal decision-makers to advocate for wildlife protection and improving the lives of farmed animals.
From supporting the Jane Goodall Act to addressing climate change and antibiotic overuse in farming, our efforts were met with positive reception.
Learn how your support plays a pivotal role in advancing animal welfare policies and legislation.
There is still time to urge the Canadian Government to address factory farming at COP28!
Climate change is accelerating at an alarming rate. Yet, governments are failing to act on one of the most significant sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions – animal agriculture.
We need your support! The United Nations climate change conference, COP28 is starting November 30th and we need to ensure that the Canadian government finally acknowledges the role that factory farming plays in the climate crisis.
Let your Member of Parliament know that this is an urgent issue that must be addressed now!
Examining the largest-ever agricultural disaster and animal welfare crisis in the British Columbia’s history
Just a little over two years ago, a devastating flood inundated Abbotsford, British Columbia.
Over 12,000 pigs, 458 cows, and 630,000 chickens and turkeys perished, and countless farmers and the wider community faced profound challenges both during and long after the flood.
Our latest comprehensive report unveils the harrowing details of the 2021 Abbotsford floods, shedding light on the factors contributing to this catastrophic event, its devastating impact on farmed animals and communities, and the failures in disaster management.
Did you know it’s World Antibiotic Awareness Week?
This week, from November 18-24, is World Antibiotic Awareness Week. With this year’s theme of “Preventing antimicrobial resistance together”, it’s the perfect time to examine our relationship with antibiotics and promote best practices to reduce the spread of antibiotic resistance.
Antibiotic resistance is a growing global health crisis that affects us all. The overuse and misuse of antibiotics have led to the emergence of drug-resistant superbugs, making infections harder to treat.
But there's hope, and it starts with you.
We put together a simple guide to protecting our future health, planet, and animals including seven practical ways to help reduce antibiotic resistance and safeguard the effectiveness of these life-saving drugs.
Do you know how smart pigs are?
Tool-use has often been associated with intelligence. Once thought to be a defining feature of humans, research is continually finding that we can add more and more animal species to the list. We all have heard of chimpanzees, crows, elephants, and even dolphins using tools, but did you know that pigs are also on this list?
Learn more about the fascinating abilities of pigs.
Pigs are intelligent, sentient beings, each with their own distinct personality. But sadly, most of these clever creatures are raised in intensive, factory farms, where they are subjected to painful and stressful procedures, and raised in cramped and unnatural conditions.
Help give pigs a better life
This Giving Tuesday, your donation will be matched thanks to a generous anonymous donor, doubling your impact to help farm animals. Your gift, regardless of its size, is urgently needed.
There are only 7 days left to double your impact for Giving Tuesday! Join us to transform their lives for the better.
