STOP "Days Old" baby calf slaughter in Canada

Kevin O'Leary (Mr. "Cheap") of the Lang and O'Leary Exchange on CBC TV loves to make the statement "it's all about the money" and so it may be to many most of the time, but there must be limits as to what will be done in pursuit of the almighty dollar.  The practise of slaughtering days old bull calves (a byproduct of the dairy industry) is not only unethical, but also quite possibly one of the most reprehensible and vile of the many questionable practises common on the factory farms of today!  Indeed, "it is all about the money".  To callously deny these calves the right to "a life" after being party to breeding the cow, knowing that there was a 50% chance of getting a bull calf is unconscionable.  Exactly when did these "farmers" lose their sense of morality? and why? ...........maybe, more importantly, what the hell has happened to consumers that they do not "scream murder" about the fact of what industry is selling them?  Or why do they continue to buy this stuff?

Kendra Keels of Ontario Veal has confirmed that since "there is no market for days old baby fresh or frozen cuts", the meat from these babies goes to what she calls "further processing".  Just how low will the industry go?  They call it further processing, I call it deliberately hiding what it is they are selling you!  Imagine this if you will, it's hidden in your hot dog wieners, it's hidden in the processed lunch and deli meat you buy, and quite possibly even hidden in the beef and beef vegetable baby food you purchase.  Imagine that, feeding babies to babies!

 

Baby Bovine calf slaughter OK in Canada! - Baby seal slaughter banned in Canada!  Yes it is illegal to slaughter the baby seals until they change color in Canada.  It is great that world pressure has ended the "white" seal slaughter, BUT where is the outrage about the killing of the baby Bovines???  Or are they "just not cute enough"?  Or could it be Cognitive Dissonance?  Where are the "celebs."?
 
Enough, is enough!   It is these scheming, underhanded, and vile practises, that if allowed to continue will, in fact feed the "farm animal abolitionist agenda".   The dairy industry, and Canada's government regulators must find another way,  it is clear that the current way has little possibility of "a good ending"!  The "evil" practise of slaughtering days old calves in Canada must end, and soon. 

Barrie Hopkins has it right in his article 'Fear ~  There are those in the know among us who tell us that our entire eco-system is dying. Our style of living must be changed, our actions reversed. Within this new millennium would it not be nice if this creature known as man could take a long look at himself in the mirror and then sit down and rethink his thinking? Would it not be nice to stop cowering in our man-made caves and start living? Living the lives that God intended when he granted dominion. When dominion over was granted did it not include ourselves, our lusts, our cruelty, as well as our greed?

I think it long overdue and definitely not before time, that the naked ape sits down and rethinks that which God has graciously granted.'
