Subject: Windsor, Canada, friendship city with Seoul Guro District, S. Korea
Dear Mayor Dilkens,
dear City Council members,
Seoul Guro District became Friendship city with Windsor, Canada in 2017.
The horrific dog-meat trade and consumption is currently being practiced in
that city, regardless of the fact that it is illegal under South Korean Law –
the laws are simply not enforced!
The dog and cat meat trades involve extreme and widespread animal cruelty,
and the animals suffer unimaginable pain and distress under deliberate
torture.
We ask you to please watch the videos of South Korea’s dog meat
industry:
And to take notice of the petition: https://www.change.org/p/mayor-drew-dilkens-of-windsor-canada-tell-friendship-city-seoul-guro-korea-that-we-re-opposed-to-the-torture-eating-of-dogs
These poor creatures cannot speak for themselves which is why I am writing
on their behalf.
I believe that your city wishes to be made aware of this ongoing issue as
well, and not want to be affiliated with a city where illegal and immoral
torture is being carried out on any animal, and particularly not on those that
are loyal, trusting and sentient creatures, which look up to us humans as being
their guardians.
These illegal trades are still being allowed to continue by S. Korean
authorities – even though there is a large growing opposition from pet owners
across South Korea, and throughout the world.
So, I am asking you to please speak with your counterparts in Seoul Guro
District, especially Mayor Sung Lee, to urge them to enforce their own laws,
not ignore them, and to show compassion towards their companion animals, and
respect to their own citizens, by bringing these brutal trades finally to an
end!
It is about time to make true humane and ethical changes; this is the time
to stop this illegal, barbaric and horrifying cruelty!
I know that South Korea has many beautiful and noble practices and customs
worth preserving, but this is not one of them!
Thank you for your time and understanding.
Please let me know how you feel about this too often concealed dark
subject, thank you.
Sincerely:
