Legislation galore. Good!  Now we're talking.   Let loose.....

Let all these lib wet dream fantasies hang out for all to see.  It'll make Trump movement jump quick to this side of the border.  

It's not lib so much as animal liker.  It would be such a simple fix, and so sensible.

No, you linked to an article from some right wing nutcase that loosely quoted a German publication, that quoted a Green party member (not a leftist, a environmentalist but you obviously don't know the difference). The original quote is nothing like what the right wing nutcase summarized, and even further from what you are claiming.

 

Oh you guys.....what a pathetic utterance of denial!

 

It quoted a Green Party member .....

 

Quote

.......who happens to be Environmental Minister in Chancellor Schroeder's cabinet.

 

It first won representation at the national level in 1983, and from 1998 to 2005 it formed a coalition government with the Social Democratic Party (SPD).

Giving up our rights and freedom.

Do you think there should be cat and dog meat available in butcher shops?  After all, that's freedom of protein...  

Here in Mongolia, we eat horse.  In Canada, horse is illegal.  Mongolia is much more freedom than Canada.

I'm not certain, but I do believe it's legal in Québec. It's eaten there for sure.

Canada produces a lot of horse meat.

Facts are unimportant in this discussion.  What about dog and cat meat?   Why is Canada not freedom???

Except of course your premise is based on a complete fabrication. I ate horse meat a few weeks ago, and was about pick up some at the store the other day but decided on chicken instead. If you are going to make such absurd statements, you should at least check your facts before posting.

If you change horse to dog, my statement is 100% correct.

Eating horse is not illegal in Canada.   Misleading consumers about it, is what's illegal.

The CFIA is aware that in 2013, horse meat was discovered in some otherwise labelled

meat products in Europe. However, Canadian consumers should note two important

facts. First, Canada does not currently permit beef imports from Europe. Second, in

Canada, the potential use of horse meat as a substitute for beef would be unlikely.

 

There are only four federally registered establishments that perform horse slaughter,

and most of this meat is exported.  In addition, the economic situation in Canada is

different from Europe given that fresh beef here costs less than horse meat.

In some cultures, they eat cats and dogs.   If they see cats and dogs the same way we see chickens and cows.....is there anything wrong with that? 

It depends on the culture why dog and cat meat are not in butcher shops in Canada.  I hardly see game meat sold, either.  It depends on what's in demand.         If there's a demand, some entrepreneur will supply it.

If you're in business......why would you sell something that won't sell?

It is illegal o sell dog meat in Canada.  Socialists are telling you what to eat.  Canada is not free.

No, again another falsification. There are no regulations against it in any province that I am aware of. Could you cite the laws you are using?

Meat processing is a provincial responsibility, and the slaughterhouses need to be licensed and inspected.

I don't know. I've seen a lot of people on this forum eat crow though.

Guinea pigs (cuy) were raised as food and are still barbecued in South America today. Socialists will let you eat guinea pigs, but not the freedom-hating Canadian government.

No it is NOT illegal to sell dog meat in Canada for food.     https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2015/06/24/dog-meat-not-explicitly-illegal-in-canada.html

 

But it has to be inspected.

The reason horses, etc.  are not widely available for food.... has to do with the drugs in them, and not illegality per se.

You're dead wrong again!

 

Dog meat legal, health inspector says

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/dog-meat-legal-health-inspector-says-1.408407

 

 

It's all about supply and demand.  If there is a demand for dog meat, and entrepreneurs find that there is money to be made in selling dog meat, I see no reason why dog meat won't eventually be treated like horse meat or chicken!  They'll just have to go through proper inspection.

 

Bottomline:  it's all about the market.  If there are enough consumers to a product to make it worthwhile to sell....they'll sell it!

The dogs have to be raised as food animals, not as pets.  

If I want to eat the neighbour's dog, who is the government to say no?   Canada...   land of the not free.   Mongolia....  land of the free to eat whatever meat you can find.
