These factory farms promised to treat animals compassionately.
They lied. Demand that the Retail Council of Canada keep its promise to end
cages for farmed animals!
Sign Now
The Retail Council of Canada (RCC) is an organization
dedicated to representing the interests of retail businesses across the
country, from groceries to pharmaceuticals to general merchandise. Several
years ago, the RCC promised to prioritize farmed animals' welfare by phasing
out cruel gestation cages for pigs and tiny battery cages for egg-laying
hens. These changes were set to be implemented by 2022 and 2025
respectively — until the RCC abruptly changed course this year, reneging on
all its previously-made commitments.
Gestation crates are metal cages just a few inches larger
than the pregnant pigs locked up inside them, each held in a cramped
individual cell for months until they give birth. Battery cages are on
average smaller than a single piece of printer paper, and hens are squished
into these crushingly small containers for their entire lives. Factory farms
use these torture chambers in order to pack as many animals into a building
as possible, turning them into meaningless objects devoid of life, just so
farm executives can squeeze out as much profit as possible. But pigs and
chickens experience pain, wants, and feelings — and right now, they're
suffering. Sign the petition to demand the Retail Council of Canada show
some integrity and remain true to its animal welfare promises!
Thank you,
