Canadian Readers: Please Bo on the Lookout
Dear Readers,
Sadly, the closure of horse slaughter plants in the U.S. HAS NOT stopped the death of many horses.
They are being trucked hundreds or thousands of miles to Canada in doubledecker trailers. I've seen video of these torture chambers -- two and three metal decks towed behind trucks. Horses can't stand up and their heads are rubbed bloody from the metal. These trailers are not only cages of misery for horses, they are are illegal and very dangerous to the other motorists sharing the highway.
If you see such a trailer carrying horses on the highway use your cell phone to call 911
MAKE THE CALL PLEASE!
If for some reason you are not able to get an appropriate response contact the CFIA 1-800-442-2342 and call the Police.
According to reports I've received, the CFIA has actually encouraged the general public to call this in so please help --
1-800-442-2342 or Call 911
This is an emergency and the CFIA condones the use of 911 for such a risky load on the highways.
