Anne Heyes have you been to the Stampede?

Have you stood in the shoots? Talked to the ranchers? NOPE.

I wonder why rodeo upsets you folks so much yet horses die often at race tracks, jumping events, eventing and other horse events, why is rodeo the only one you find offensive?

The SPCA in Calgary is VERY open and honest, they are also very proactive.

I am from Calgary born and raised, proud to be a
hillbilly as you call us (I am also edumacated). We love and care for our animals in all ways, whether we eat them, race them, farm them or keep them as pets! You're talking to a farm girl so until you have actually spent time chewing the fat for real, don't condemn me and others who know real life beyond Save-On-Foods.
