This panel explores our partnerships with cities to promote plant-based food policies and greening the city: \n  \n– Richmond Hill – including sharing recipes\, vendors and films to promote plant-based food and introducing plant-based pancakes at Maple Syrup festival; \n  \n– Brampton – now has plant based options at events and plant based food awareness week during Earth Month; \n  \n– Caledon – we do food demos (including making hyper nourishing green smoothies) for the mayor and city councillor and public for Earth Hour\, Earth Day and Waste Reduction days. \n  \n– Shifting to plant-based food menus across public institutions\, workplaces\, and communities can lower greenhouse gas emissions\, reduce land and water use\, improve public health\, and increase access to affordable food options. \n  \nThis session focuses on action\, including how to advocate for policy change and scale impact. Attendees will leave with clear next steps to become part of a campaign and help bring more cities on board as part of a growing global movement for plant-based food systems. \n  \nAbout the Host: \nThe Plant Based Treaty is a global initiative that encourages governments\, institutions\, and individuals to shift toward plant-based food systems to address climate change\, biodiversity loss\, and food insecurity. It works through policy advocacy\, public information campaigns\, and partnerships to support a transition away from animal agriculture toward sustainable\, plant-based solutions. \n  \nRegister here: \nhttps://luma.com/n3gb3r6d \n  \nOrganizer’s website: \nđŸŒ± https://plantbasedtreaty.org/ \n  \nđŸŸ Attention: \n⚠ Animal-free foods only.

Email your MP’s constituency office to request a meeting to ask that they help ban live horse exports by raising the issue with the Prime Minister and Agriculture Minister\, requesting that they ban the practice by amending the Health of Animals Regulations.

Dozens of MPs were contacted by phone and email\, and many had meetings with constituents about the issue. 50+ advocates gathered in Edmonton to demand change! \n📞 On Oct 1\, we need you again. Call your MP & urge them to support a federal ban on live horse exports. If you’ve already taken this action\, please share any updates with us or call again if you haven’t yet had a meeting! \nEvery year\, thousands of gentle\, intelligent horses are forced into cramped wooden crates and flown halfway across the world from Canada to Japan. Terrified and confused\, they endure long\, grueling flights—only to be fattened and then slaughtered for raw horse meat (sashimi). \nThis fall\, the Liberal government will introduce a new budget bill\, which can include non-budgetary measures like a ban on live horse exports. This is a key moment to push for change! \nWe need you—your heart and voice—to end this cruel and completely unnecessary practice once and for all. \n1st LEVEL ACTION:\nPHONE your MP’s constituency office (find your MP and contact details here: https://www.ourcommons.ca/members/en?)\nYou’ll likely get their voicemail or a staff member. Tell them:\n● Your name\n● That you’re a constituent (NOT a member of Animal Justice)\n● You’re calling because you’d like to see if your MP will support passing a ban on live horse exports in the fall Parliamentary session.\n● If they’re a Liberal MP\, ask if they’d be willing to work to include the ban on live horse exports in the fall budget bill.\n● That’s all you need to say\, but if you’d like to say more\, we provide some additional talking points in this Action Brief \n2nd LEVEL ACTION:\nFor those who want to take one of the most powerful steps you can for the horses
\nWhen you phone\, ask for a MEETING with your MP or a member of their team about supporting a ban on live horse exports in advance of the fall budget bill.\nUse the Action Brief we created for you with step-by-step instructions on scheduling\, preparing for\, and navigating your meeting\nYou even have the option of having a member of the AJ team attend the meeting with you if you book it via Zoom!\n—–\nMake sure to mark GOING to let us know you made or are making that call on October 1st.

We need you—your heart and voice—to end this brutal practice once and for all. \n🚹Call to Action🚹\nThis fall\, the Liberal government will introduce a new budget bill\, which can include non-budgetary measures like a ban on live horse exports.

After a judge struck down much of the law as unconstitutional last year\, the province filed an appeal in an attempt to overturn our hard-fought legal victory. Join Animal Justice and friends for a powerful rally outside the Ontario Court of Appeal as we return to the courtroom to defend the ruling. \nThe appeal will be heard by the Ontario Court of Appeal on Tuesday\, June 24 & Wednesday\, June 25. We need you there to show the court—and the public—that Canadians won’t accept laws that cover up cruelty and silence the truth about abuse at farms and slaughterhouses. Join us in an eye-catching rally\,  and help us spread the message that ag gag laws have NO place in Canada! \nSigns will be provided\, and you are welcome to bring your own. Bring your friends\, family\, and fellow advocates! \nNote: Please check the Faceboook event page for updates.

DESCRIPTION:Hello Canadian animal rights activists! \nThe time has come! We are planning the second year of our annual event in Ottawa: Canada Abuses Animals! \nThe purpose of this event and protest is to shine a light on all of the legal animal abuse that is still prevalent across this country in a variety of industries. \nThis demonstration is not intended to be anti-patriotic. We love this country and we want it to be the best it can be! But a country that partakes in systemic animal abuse can never be at its best\, and Canadians are fundamentally against animal abuse. \nWe will meet at Major’s Hill\, get organized\, march for 1 hour and then have an event on Parliament Hill itself. \nPlease note: PROTESTS ON PARLIAMENT HILL ARE NOT LIKE OTHER PROTESTS. They can attract more attention\, both from the government and from the media\, which is great. But they also need a permit (which we have!) and that permit comes with rules and regulations. \nEVERYONE PLANNING TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS EVENT\, please read and abide by this Parliament Hill rulebook: http://hill-colline.parl.ca/pdf/CUPH-Rules-e.pdf\nFrançais : http://hill-colline.parl.ca/pdf/CUPH-Rules-f.pdf \nIf you bring something that is not approved in the rules\, we may be asked to leave. \nCoolers are allowed in case you want to pack a lunch. Personal tents\, tables or chairs are unfortunately NOT permitted. \nALL SIGNS MUST HAVE MESSAGES THAT ARE ‘ON THEME’\, such as:\nAll animal abuse should be illegal\nAnimal exploitation is animal abuse\nAnimal mutilation is animal abuse\nTransporting live animals is animal abuse\nGestation cages are animal abuse\nCanada Funds Animal Abuse\nAnimal gas chamber is animal abuse\nElectrocuting animals is animal abuse\nLack of medical care on farms is animal abuse\nAnimal testing is animal abuse\nForced fertilization of animals is animal abuse\nThe dairy industry is animal abuse\nThe meat industry is animal abuse\nThe egg industry is animal abuse\nThe fur industry is animal abuse\nMacerating chicks is animal abuse\nCanada CAN and MUST do better for animals\nCanadians are AGAINST animal abuse\nBe a voice for animals\nAnimal agriculture is animal abuse\nAnimals deserve a bill of rights \nIf you are unsure if your sign matches the event theme\, please check with us! \nI would like people to speak or perform at this event! If you would like to be considered to give a speech or musical performance\, or if you are in contact with a known person who may wish to do so\, please contact us. \nThe dress code for this event is a WHITE top. We will be selling Canada Abuses Animals t-shirts and crewneck sweatshirts this year! \nWe will be renting a bus from Montreal to Ottawa as we did last year\, but carpooling will also be essential to get people there\, so if you have a car with room for compassionate humans\, please say so in the discussion below! \nThe idea is that this event is something we can repeat year after year until animal abuse is no longer part of Canadian culture. I would also like to see it reproduced in other countries one day! (Australia Abuses Animals\, France Abuses Animals\, etc.) \nLet’s make this BIG and MEMORABLE and remind Canadians that they are forgetting their better natures and who they really are by consuming products from industries that abuse animals on their behalf. \nIf you have any other ideas that you think would make this event more effective\, please send us a message. \nThank you so much and see you there! \n~~~~~ \nSalut les militants canadiens des droits des animaux ! \nLe temps est venu! Nous planifions la deuxiĂšme annĂ©e de notre Ă©vĂ©nement annuel Ă  Ottawa\, Le Canada abuse des animaux ! \nLe but de cette manifestation est de mettre en lumiĂšre tous les abus lĂ©gaux envers les animaux qui sont encore rĂ©pandus Ă  travers ce pays dans une variĂ©tĂ© d’industries. \nCette manifestation ne se veut pas anti-patriotique. Nous aimons ce pays et nous voulons qu’il soit le meilleur possible ! Mais un pays qui participe Ă  la maltraitance systĂ©mique des animaux ne peut jamais ĂȘtre Ă  son meilleur\, et les Canadiens sont fondamentalement contre la maltraitance des animaux. \nNous nous rĂ©unirons Ă  Major’s Hill\, nous nous organiserons\, nous marcherons pendant 1 heure\, puis nous organiserons un Ă©vĂ©nement sur la Colline du Parlement mĂȘme. \nVeuillez noter : LES MANIFESTATIONS SUR LA COLLINE DU PARLEMENT NE SONT PAS COMME LES AUTRES MANIFESTATIONS. Elles peuvent attirer davantage l’attention\, tant du gouvernement que des mĂ©dias\, ce qui est excellent. Mais elles ont Ă©galement besoin d’un permis (que nous avons !) et ce permis est accompagnĂ© de rĂšgles et de rĂšglements. \nTOUTES PERSONNES PRÉVOYANT PARTICIPER À CETTE MANIFESTATION\, veuillez lire et respecter ce livret de rĂšgles de la Colline du Parlement : http://hill-colline.parl.ca/pdf/CUPH-Rules-f.pdf\nEnglish : http://hill-colline.parl.ca/pdf/CUPH-Rules-f.pdf \nSi vous apportez quelque chose qui n’est pas approuvĂ© dans le rĂšglement\, on pourrait nous demander de partir. \nLes glaciĂšres sont autorisĂ©es au cas oĂč vous voudriez vous prĂ©parer un lunch. Les tentes\, tables ou chaises personnelles ne sont malheureusement PAS autorisĂ©es. \nTOUS LES SIGNES DOIVENT AVOIR DES MESSAGES QUI SONT « SUR LE THÈME »\, tels que :\nTous les abus envers les animaux devraient ĂȘtre illĂ©gaux\nL’exploitation animale est de la maltraitance animale\nLa mutilation animale est de la maltraitance animale\nLe transport d’animaux vivants est de la maltraitance animale\nLes cages de gestation sont de la maltraitance animale\nLe Canada finance la maltraitance des animaux\nLa chambre Ă  gaz des animaux est de la maltraitance animale\nÉlectrocuter des animaux est de la maltraitance animale\nLe manque de soins mĂ©dicaux dans les fermes est de la maltraitance animale\nL’expĂ©rimentation animale est de la maltraitance animale\nLa fĂ©condation forcĂ©e des animaux est de la maltraitance animale\nL’industrie laitiĂšre est de la maltraitance animale\nL’industrie de la viande est de la maltraitance animale\nL’industrie des Ɠufs est de la maltraitance animale\nL’industrie de la fourrure est de la maltraitance animale\nFaire macĂ©rer des poussins est de la maltraitance animale\nLe Canada PEUT et DOIT faire mieux pour les animaux\nLes Canadiens sont CONTRE la maltraitance des animaux\nSoyez une voix pour les animaux\nL’agriculture animale est de la maltraitance animale\nLes animaux mĂ©ritent une charte des droits \nSi vous n’ĂȘtes pas sĂ»r que votre panneau corresponde au thĂšme de l’évĂ©nement\, veuillez vĂ©rifier avec nous ! \nJ’aimerais que les gens parlent ou performent lors de cet Ă©vĂ©nement ! Si vous souhaitez ĂȘtre considĂ©rĂ© pour faire un discours ou une performance musicale\, ou si vous ĂȘtes en contact avec une personne connue qui pourrait souhaiter le faire\, veuillez nous contacter. \nLe code vestimentaire pour cet Ă©vĂ©nement est un haut BLANC. Nous vendrons des t-shirts et des chandails ras du cou Canada Abuses Animals cette annĂ©e! \nNous louerons un autobus de MontrĂ©al Ă  Ottawa comme nous l’avons fait l’an dernier\, mais le covoiturage sera Ă©galement essentiel pour y amener les gens\, donc si vous avez une voiture avec de la place pour les humains compatissants\, veuillez le dire dans la discussion ci-dessous ! \nL’idĂ©e est que cet Ă©vĂ©nement est quelque chose que nous pouvons rĂ©pĂ©ter annĂ©e aprĂšs annĂ©e jusqu’à ce que la maltraitance des animaux ne fasse plus partie de la culture canadienne. J’aimerais aussi le voir reproduit dans d’autres pays un jour !

The parts of these two bills pertaining to animal testing will prevent millions of lives from being bred into an existence of exploitation. With the passing of these two bills\, Canada has become a leader in the fight against vivisection\, which we hope will lead down the path toward a total ban on animal testing across all industries. \nEach year\, millions of animals are used and tortured in post-secondary institutions around the world and according to new research commissioned by the Animal Alliance of Canada Fund (AAC Fund)\, 8 in 10 Canadians want post-secondary institutions to stop using animals for educational purposes\, research\, and testing.\nIn 2021\, University of Toronto alone used 159\,803 animals from 161 species. \nIt would be in the best interest of post-secondary institutions across the country to heed these findings and move toward transitioning to non-animal research methods. \nPlease take a few seconds to send a pre-written email to all Newfoundland & Labrador Members of Parliament\, asking them to build on the momentum of passing bills C-47 and S-5 and introduce a new bill that will ban all post-secondary institutions from using animals for educational purposes\, research\, and testing.
