Subject: THE ISSUE OF LIVE HORSE SHIPMENTS TO JAPAN for SLAUGHTER!

Minister,
Inspector,
Member of Parliament,
Sir, Madam,
To whom it concerns:

As a follow up to a recently released information on the live draft horse shipments out of Calgary, Alberta, I’m releasing this footage that has not been in general release until now.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnqdAoIza7o

This footage was taken in January and March 2015.
In the first segment we see 4 horses being loaded into a crate in Calgary that’s designed for three and which is against Canada’s Health of Animals regulations. You can see the specific sections here (140.1 and 141.8)
An ATI document makes reference to the fact that loading a fourth horse into a crate is upsetting to the other horses.
We then see the unloading in Japan and can clearly see the crates that the horses have been confined in for many, many hours as well as the typical rough handling that is endemic in this industry.
Why the horses are not being led in one at a time rather than stampeding into the crates given that they all have halters on? This would be much safer that way.
I have serious concerns about the export business of live horses being sent for slaughter to Japan by aircraft.
The pertinent details are well-covered here, and I’m hoping that you will study the Access of Information findings listed: https://canadianhorsedefencecoalition.files.wordpress.com/…. [

Please act promptly to end this cruel, unsafe and illegal practice.
I look forward to your reply.

Sincerely:
