Small, locally-owned and operated, provincially-inspected abattoirs are a key ingredient in safe, local food. They provide a crucial link between livestock farmers and the local food movement.

As farmers, meat processors and consumers committed to local food, we are afraid that small, provincially-inspected abattoirs are disappearing from our communities. As the Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, we are asking you to help save the small abattoirs across Ontario.

    • small abattoirs provide jobs for families - families that value what they do and the quality they produce. They are safer as they do not operate at factory speed, safer for the worker and safer for the consumer.

    • Who is actually behind the regulation?? I smell big business like Maple Leaf, etc. And We all know what happened in one of their plants not so long ago-local businesses taking care of local people are always going to be more effective and responsible.
