In Honour of Regan: Repeal Ag Gag & Protect All Animals

In Honour of Regan: Repeal Ag Gag & Protect All Animals

On June 19, 2020, animal advocate Regan Russell was violently run over and killed by a truck bringing pigs to slaughter at the notorious Fearmans Pork slaughterhouse in Burlington, Ontario, Canada. Regan was peacefully standing on public property when she was killed, attending a vigil for pigs going to slaughter while taking a stand against Ontario’s ag gag law, which passed just two days earlier.

Ontario’s ag gag law covers up animal abuse at farms, during transport, and in slaughterhouses by making it illegal to expose hidden suffering. The law specifically targets peaceful slaughterhouse vigils like the one Regan was attending. Animal Justice is challenging Ontario’s ag gag law in court because it puts animals at risk and emboldens the meat industry.

Help honour Regan by adding your name in support of repealing Ontario’s ag gag law, and encouraging the province to instead pass laws to protect farmed animals like the innocent pigs she was trying to help.
