In 2017, shocking evidence of animal cruelty was video recorded at several Ontario mink fur farms, including one directly linked to the university of Guelph. Exposed were the horrifying conditions mink are forced to live and die in for the fashion industry. The videos, submitted as evidence to the Ontario SPCA showed dead and injured animals with untreated open wounds, overcrowding of animals in filthy feces encrusted cages, sludge pits of urine, maggot infested food, and other criminal mistreatment of animals. The OSPCA investigated the farms but chose not prosecute the criminal acts of these farm owners due to alleged legal technicalities.


While the videos were used in news stories across canada and around the world, mink fur farm owners from Enniskillen, Ontario are using a section the break and enter criminal code -- which states that it is illegal to be present where penned animals are kept -- to have a person who took the videos charged criminally.


To clarify - no property was damaged and not even a door was opened to obtain these videos yet this whistleblower is facing B & E felony charges for Exposing the cruelty of the fur farm industry.
