SUMMARY:Empire of greed: Sobeys breaks its cage-free egg promise to Canadians.
DESCRIPTION:Join 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 the Sobeys located at 24 Fort York Blvd\, Toronto\, ON M5V\, Canada\, Saturday\, July 18th\, 2025\, at 12:30PM 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.

SUMMARY:We The Free | Solidarity Day

In return\, they receive a free vegan treat! It’s an incredibly effective and engaging way to grab attention and spark meaningful conversations about animal rights. \nDuring the conversations\, outreachers will share a personal code linking to https://www.3movies.wtf\, where people can further explore films\, tools\, and challenges to inspire lasting change. \n📍 Event Info\n\nMaterials: No need to bring anything — all materials\, screens\, and vegan treats will be provided. Just show up!\nDress Code: Please avoid wearing animal-derived clothing or vegan slogans to preserve the element of surprise for the public.\nFirst Timers: New to volunteering?
