Toronto Pig Save

✪ NOW PLAYING ✪ Water for pig angel victims in Toronto's heat wave

Our mission is to erect “glass walls” on Toronto’s three slaughterhouses: St. Helen’s Meat Packers and Ryding-Regency Meat Packers cow slaughterhouses located at 1 and 7 Glen Scarlett Road and Maple Leaf Poultry chicken slaughterhouse located at 100 Ethel Avenue.

Our goal is to encourage people:

✦ To join us and bear witness of the suffering of animals in transport and at slaughterhouses

✦ To go vegan

✦ To be daily animal activists

✦ To protect the environment

✦ To promote healthy living

✦ To support farm sanctuaries

✦ To work towards a just transition for workers and the creation of meaningful and nonviolent work in a vegan food economy

In July 2011, we committed to holding three weekly vigils to bear witness of pigs and other farmed animals transported to Toronto’s four slaughterhouses. In late 2012, Toronto Cow Save started holding weekly vigils and in July 2013 Toronto Chicken Save began holding weekly vigils. As our group grows, we hope to increase the number and duration of our vigils.

We use the strategies of bearing witness to animal suffering in darkest places—slaughterhouses—and a community-organizing approach in which we have a team of leaders and we encourage leadership in others.

We aim to build a democratic, mass-based, grassroots movement to bear witness of animal suffering, end the animal emergency, and create a world of animal equality and animal sanctuaries.
