Animal Advocates Watchdog

The PNE wraps up for another year

The PNE finally winds up Labour Day. Safeway Farm Country was back again where kids could "play" with the petting zoo animals, try their hand at milking a cow, and "maybe even watch one being born." They were also invited to check out one of the "entertaining" demonstrations where they could see where their food comes from. And who'd want to miss out on getting some "top grade meat" at the 4-H Auction? The very same cows, pigs, or lambs that kids raised and befriended, now betrayed, and sold to the highest bidder. Richard's Racers, a crowd pleaser, had CTV's Rena Heer racing four of the pigs on closing day. She placed second, ahead of Sir Hamelot.

I can hardly wait for next year.
