Quotes from guests:
John Lewis “I am attending the vigil because I want people to see how wonderful these animals are and if they could only see for themselves, people wouldn’t eat them”
Torre Washington “I’m coming to Toronto’s farmed animals vigil to bear witness to this inhumane and unnecessary treatment of animals before their violent death at the hands of humanity. We need to show the world how compassion towards those who can’t reciprocate is one of the answers to the loss of so many lives.”
Dominick Thompson “Vigils like this are a critical and powerful way to educate the public with the merciless reality farm animals face in the final hours leading up to their slaughter.”
Marc Wood “The strongest muscle is the heart, so exercise it daily with empathy and kindness towards all beings.”
All those attending their first vigil will receive a complimentary, Toronto Pig Save tank top, t-shirt or hoodie ♥ RaRa’s will be providing delicious, free vegan food for all participants. Event program and more details to be added soon!
Save the date and join us to bear witness to innocent animals in their final moments. Be a part of the change!
