HELP SAVE URBAN CHICKENS!!! Please help Canadian food activist, Paul Hughes, appeal the decision by a Canadian court that owning Urban chickens is not a constitutional right!
In 2009 I decided to build myself a chicken coop, and get myself a couple of heritage breed hens. The only issue was, I live in the City of Calgary, where there is a bylaw prohibiting livestock and poultry within the city limits. Well I didn't let that stop me, and you can read my post on The Egg Industry in Canada to learn more about my motives.
In the name of
affordable food, millions of hens in Canada suffer each year. This
September I took a stand against the Canadian Egg Industry. I no longer
purchase eggs from battery hens, and have decided to unlawfully raise my
own healthy, happy hens for eggs in my backyard.
