“On that day when Maple Leaf representatives were there conducting their audit, a pig gave birth. Workers moved her out of her gestation crate, killed all of her piglets in front of her, and later she went and laid down beside her dead piglets.”

From the big-picture statistics to the stories of individual pigs — like 21401, who would run over to play when called by a whistle, but was shipped off to her death for taking too long to come into heat — Francois takes us inside a world where regulations are vague and suffering is accepted as the norm. She asks that listeners consider signing a petition to ask Canada’s largest grocery chains to refuse to sell meat from companies that use the practices seen in the video, and try going veg too!
Listen right now:
Well done Tywla. Very informative. I put myself in the place of someone who knew little if anything about the treatment of farmed animals and how they would rate this interview. Twyla you were bang on. Yours in rescue, Nicole
I think taht all countries must stop all of this, it’s possible to offer them a good life and try to have a best world… all of this is horrible, do you imagine what’s your children can see…about you how need to show the best way to them !
Thanks Twyla,
So many more who knew nothing about the cruel practices of the animal agribusiness in Canada will now know how disgusting and horrific these factory farm practices are.
No decent human should except these practices.
You have informed many who will now make more compassionate decisions in their diet.
Great interview!!!
