Be Non-Violent, Be Vegan! Is the realization of torture, terrorizing and vivisection style mass slaughtering of billions of innocent animals a year for “your” food not enough to make you go vegan? Perhaps it will, when you realize that the killing you continue to support is going to kill you! Animals are “someone” and not “something” that experience joy and pain.

Should Genetically Modified Foods be Labelled in Canada?

their rear end, castration, and even the removal of their horns without any numbing or painkillers. These cattle also must stay outside for many months in muddy, filthy and even possibly freezing conditions. Also the use of “grass-raised” on labels and packages is very misleading, this does not mean that these cows were raised in cruel free conditions, this quite literally means that these cattle just so happen to live in grassy areas, they still are sent to feedlots and still could live in…

The monarch butterfly, also known as Danaus plexippus, is recognized as America’s state insect with a wing span of 4 inches and 10 centimeters long – the longest wing span ever recorded within the monarchs’ insect population (Conant, 2012). Monarchs are notorious in the United States because of their spectacular migration across Canada and the United States to the overwintering sites in central Mexico – and back again.

I fling myself on the bed, finally able to relax. I have not just faced certain death from a wild African beast or crazed Ndebele tribesman, I have just finished dinner. It is 9pm, I have retired to my rondavel, to another lonely night after a luscious dinner of roast kudu, in a rich brown gravy accompanied by three vegetables from the farm garden. Desert was steamed golden syrup pudding and custard. The food was great, the meal atmosphere, for me, as always, a little tense. I am over…

The idea of animal rights has been an important topic around the world for a while, but it wasn’t until 1822 when the Ill-Treatment of Cattle Act got passed that the United States recognized it. The passed Cattle Act protected dogs from harsh care.
