Stop Bill 156
Won't anyone think of the foreign owned multi-billion dollar corporations?!
Just a big fuck you to all of you who think this is a good law.
If your industry is so gross that it is critical to your bottom line that nobody sees it in action... you might be an asshole.
As much as it pains the cheap guy inside me to pay $20 for a couple of chicken breasts it is the only way to go. I have reduced my meat intake as a result so win win I guess.

Not only have I 100% changed the way I buy meat, but I've also decided to try eating all the veggie "meat" alternatives.

Cut the meat intake down from every day to once/twice a week. Have to say feel better for it. Was eating too much meat and especially sandwich meat, that is now history on our house. The crap put in that stuff is horrendous.

Any recommendations? Eating less meat was actually less drastic than I thought it would be, but after 30+ years of cooking a certain way, I find it hard to plan meals without meat. Replacing it with something else makes it a lot easier.
The best thing you can do is eat less beef. It requires 10 times the resources compared to chicken.

The burgers look good. We make our own with more or less the same ingredients (black bean-based with BBQ sauce) and they are way better than the other kinds IMO.

Unlike Europe, Australia and New Zealand, Canada’s laws governing animal welfare have barely evolved over the last century, even though the open pastures of traditional family farms have largely been replaced by the confining cages of today’s industrial farms.
Instead of updating our animal welfare laws, Ottawa has allowed the industry to draw up its own “codes of practice,” which are effectively guidelines with no clear penalties for lack of compliance.
The writing of the codes is overseen by the National Farm Animal Care Council — a private body, funded by government (you, taxpayer), but dominated by the meat industry and other “stakeholders” in the food supply chain.
