SUMMARY:Empire of Greed - Cage-Free Campaign
DESCRIPTION:Sobeys is a “Proud Sponsor” of the Blue Jays for giveaways\, posts\, etc. \nThey have been in partnership and boasted this for years. \nThe Blue Jays games are highly attended and offer a perfect opportunity for us to raise awareness amongst a large audience.\nWe will be targeting the Rogers Centre as it located very close to the Sobeys location we’ve been targeting most heavily with demos and tactics!” \nJoin Mercy For Animals volunteers to demand Sobeys to publish a time-bound plan for fulfilling their pledge to eliminate extreme confinement for hens in their egg supply chain. \nIn 2016\, Sobeys and their parent company\, Empire\, publicly promised to stop sourcing eggs from caged hens by 2025. \nYears later\, despite ruling over some of Canada’s largest and most profitable grocery brands\, Empire retracted their commitment deadline in 2021\, stating that they would not meet their original deadline. \nSobeys promised to publish an updated plan for finishing their transition but has yet to share how and when they plan to fulfill their cage-free promise. \nWe’re urging Sobeys to publish a time-bound plan for fulfilling their pledge to eliminate extreme confinement for hens in their egg supply chain. \nLearn about our current Canadian campaign here: https://empireofgreed.ca \nWe will be at Rogers Centre\,1 Blue Jays Way\,Toronto\, ON M5V 1J1. Saturday\, September 13th\, 2025\, at 1:30 PM to 230 PM to inform the public about this issue and hold them accountable to their promise. \nWe will have a banner\, signs\, and leaflets to use the day of. Come with yourself and bonus if you can bring a friend! \nBy attending this and other Mercy For Animals events\, you agree to our Volunteer Terms (https://mercyforanimals.org/volunteer-terms/) and Volunteer Handbook (https://file-cdn.mercyforanimals.org/…/MFA-Volunteer…). \nIf you have any questions feel free to message me on Facebook or by email at animalsmatter@hotmail.com. \nThank you\,\nKelli Demontneay
