Transportation of Farm Animals - Act Now!

The BC SPCA and the Canadian Federation of Humane Societies are working to create awareness of farm animal transportation issues in Canada, and encourage humane societies, SPCAs, and caring individuals across Canada to help spread the word to encourage the federal government and the CFIA to make progressive changes to Canada's regulations.

You can make a difference by voicing your support for our recommendations to Canada's Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food using the web-form below. Please submit the form as-is or add your own comments.

Dear Minister, I would like to voice my support for the BC SPCA's Report to the CFIA on the Proposed Amendments to the Transportation of Animals Regulations. Farm animals presently suffer unnecessarily while being transported long distances in inadequate conditions in Canada. Stronger regulations and more enforcement activities are urgently needed to protect these animals. Please ensure that the amended Regulations will include, at a bare minimum, shorter maximum transport times and maximum loading densities, according to the recommendations made in Technical Bulletins produced by the Ministry of Agriculture and Agri-Food's own scientists.
