- **Event Name**: Candle Light Vigil for the Horses Lost to Live Exports
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 16 Dec, 2025 at 04:00 pm – Tue, 16 Dec, 2025 at 06:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The Vigil will be at Eleanor Olszewski office, our MP, at 12220 Stony Plain Rd Unit 104, Edmonton, AB at 6pm to 7pmMarking the Anniversary of the 2021 Liberal Mandate Letter Promise to Ban Live Horse Exports for SlaughterJoin us for a peaceful vigil to honour the thousands of Canadian horses who have suffered and died as a result of live horse exports for slaughter overseas.This event takes place on the anniversary of the Agriculture Minister’s 2021 mandate letter, which included a promise to end the live export of horses for slaughter consistent with the Liberal Party’s promise to Canadians earlier that year. Since the mandate letter, more than 10,700 horses have been shipped on grueling flights to Japan—only to be fattened, slaughtered, and served raw as sashimi. Hundreds of these horses have died or become injured during transport or in the hours and days after landing in Japan, dying from untreated injuries, extreme dehydration and stress, and even painful miscarriages.As the Liberal Party’s commitment remains unfulfilled, these gentle animals continue to endure immense suffering and their lives must not be forgotten.This vigil is one of 11 taking place across Canada, as communities from coast to coast come together in unity and compassion to remember the horses and call for action.What to Expect:Standing together in solidarity and compassionReflections and shared wordsA moment of silence to honour the lives lostThe opportunity to bring and lay letters, flowers, or symbolic items at the memorialThis vigil is not only a moment of remembrance—it is a call for urgent action. We are calling on the government to keep the Liberal Party’s promise and immediately ban live horse exports for slaughter through regulation.Every day of inaction means more horses suffer and die on long, terrifying journeys overseas.Let’s come together on this solemn anniversary to show our compassion, our grief, and our determination to see justice for these animals. Let’s send a message to our government: Canadians expect the Liberal Party to honour its word and end this cruelty now.All are welcome. Bring your voice, your heart, and your hope for a future where no horse is forced to endure this suffering again.Join us at Eleanor Olszewski office, our MP, at 12220 Stony Plain Rd Unit 104, Edmonton, AB at 6pm to 7pm
