A few months ago I had posted links to 2 different petitions on the Petluck facebook page. One petition was to free two dogs seized because of BSL laws, in Brampton, and has obtained an impressive 10,500 signatures. (The petition is closed but the facebook group is here; 11,138 members to date!) And yet the petition against gas chambers, which affects so many, has only 2253 so far! I wondered if it was because the petition to free the two dogs was made more compelling, as the issue has a name and a face. If that’s the case, then all one needs to do is imagine it’s our own pet facing a terrible death in such a barbaric manner, as so many have already experienced, and that should be enough to want to sign here I think! (And please share with friends!)

There will be a march to demonstrate against the use of gas chambers in Quebec and across Canada, organized by the Canadian Volunteers for the Protection of Animals. The group will assemble on April 17th at 1pm in Lafontaine Park, at the Chalet Calixa-Lavallée on Calixa Lavallee street, and will continue on Cherrier to Carré St-Louis. You can find street parking by Calixa Lavallée or by Emile-Duployé. Parking is free for 3 hours.

Georges Laraque (from the NHL), Patricia Tulasne (actress), Julie Snyder ( Productions J), Jacques Godin (actor) as well as many others will be present!
