Take action for plant-based progress in Canada (federal e-petition)

Animal agriculture is responsible for 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions as well as wide-scale animal suffering.
In 2023, nearly 859 million land animals were killed for food in Canada.
Moving toward a plant-based food system is a vital step for animal well-being and environmental protection.
A new parliamentary e-petition calls on the Government of Canada to take three plant-forward actions which would help meet its climate commitments.

Tell the government to take plant-forward action before July 2nd

Moving toward a plant-based food system is one of the most significant changes our society can make for animal welfare and environmental protection. If every Canadian who eats animal products switched to plant-based food just one day each week, our nation would save nearly 123 million animal lives per year.

A new federal e-petition calls on the government to:

Educate Canadians on benefits of eating less meat, dairy, eggs and more plant-based foods in keeping with Canada’s Food Guide;
Require federal institutions and federally funded food programs (eg; National School Food Program) to procure more plant-based foods; and
Limit growth of industrial animal agriculture and support small-scale farmers using resilient, humane, sustainable farming practices.

Can you sign the petition before July 2nd and help save millions of animals from suffering and slaughter?
