Toronto Chicken Save holds regular vigils for the chickens to bear witness to\, to speak up for\, and to bring awareness to the thousands of lives who are needlessly and violently stolen daily at this Toronto slaughterhouse. Please join us. \nTwo trucks are scheduled to arrive together within the timeframe of this vigil. The manager or security guard on duty normally will voluntarily allow us to spend five minutes with each truck. They have asked that we bear witness from the side of the truck that is along the grass\, not the side of the street for safety reasons\, and would appreciate if we wore safety vests. Please be respectful of these requests\, as they do not have to let us spend time with the chickens.\nJoin us! Bring a friend. Be their voice. Be the change you want to see in the world. \nPLEASE READ: \nšŸš— PARKING\nPlease park in south end of the parking lot of Metro grocery store (directly behind the store)\, closest to Ethel Avenue and Maple Leaf Food Inc.\nšŸ¦  COVID\nTo reduce the spread of COVID we recommend that attendees do their best to follow Toronto safety measures.\nšŸš” Bill 156\nA section of Bill 156 has taken effect prohibiting us to interfere or stop trucks. We do not forcefully stop trucks at these vigils\, however Maple Leaf managers have agreed to voluntarily let us spend five full minutes with each truck. With a peaceful presence\, we hope they will continue to do so. Please come with peace to change the violent\, dark energy of this area of Toronto.\nā›ˆ Weather\nWe attend rain or shine\, as the chickens arrive rain or shine. However\, if there is a forecast for thunderstorms we may cancel the event for our own safety. Please click ā€œGoingā€ to be notified of any cancellation.\nā˜®ļø Peace:\nThe purpose of Toronto Chicken Save vigils is to bear witness\, to see the reality\, to connect\, to document\, then to share with others. To bring peace to a violent space. Disruptions should take place at a different time.\nšŸš› Truck Drivers:\nThough we know what they do for a living is wrong\, we remain respectful to the drivers for giving us this time to expose to the world the reality of farmed animals. We are not there to attack individuals\, but a whole system.\nāœŒ Slaughterhouse Workers:\nOffer a wave or peace sign instead of responding negatively if a worker engages with you. Break the cycle of violence.\nšŸ” Stress for animals:\nThe chickens we bear witness to are very young and scared. Most have not had positive human interactions in their short lives and may see us as danger. Letā€™s not cause any added stress to these beings than they already have. Artificial light\, like a camera flash\, has a big impact on birds. Never use a flash at night. If you do\, it may startle the bird and cause injury. When itā€™s dark out\, instead of using a flash\, please select a higher ISO speed. Be careful if using a flashlight to not shine them directly in the chickensā€™ eyes.\nšŸ¦ŗ Your safety:\nEthel Avenue is extremely dark in the evening/night and at times busy with transport trucks and other large vehicles. Please dress visibly\, dress according to the weather\, and carry a light source with you. When bearing witness\, we are often not actively paying attention to our surroundings and tragedy could happen. Please only bear witness from the side of the truck that is along the grass\, not the side of the street. Safety vests will be provided.\nšŸ™‹ā€ā™‚ļøKeep arms and hands out of the truck:\nAvoid the temptation to reach inside for the following reasons:\nThe truck may suddenly move\, trapping/taking you with it.\nFear. Many of these beings have not known kind human hands in the past so human hand/arm may cause them stress.\nMoving away from the truck:\nEveryone will be notified when five minutes is up. At that time we must (very\, very sadly) move away from the truck\, for your safety. Not giving them the safe space may\, sadly\, end our ability to bear witness. Until we create a mass movement to free our friends\, this is what we must do to help them.\nThank you for your understanding and for coming to bear witness and to be their voice. Please bring a friend. They desperately need you there.

The conference is open to school or non-profit educators working with students at any age level ā€“ from pre-K all the way to post-secondary. \nOur countryā€™s educational institutions have a complicated relationship with animals. Educators teach about topics such as kindness\, compassion\, social justice\, and environmental sustainability\, while our schools frequently exploit animals through the food we serve\, the dissections we carry out\, the field trips we run\, and the curriculum we facilitate that ignores their plight (among others). Educators are uniquely positioned to help turn the tide of our societyā€™s overall indifference to the suffering of countless animals.

Disruptions can take place at a different time. \n2) Truck Drivers:\nThough we donā€™t respect what they are doing for a living\, letā€™s respect the drivers for giving us this time to show the world the plight of farmed animals. \n3) Slaughterhouse Workers:\nSome workers may try to taunt (though rarely anymore). Offer a wave or peace sign instead of a negative reaction. Break the cycle of violence. \nšŸ™‹ā€ Keep Arms out of the truck: \nWeā€™ve experienced a few serious injuries from vigil attendees putting hands/arms into the truck. Please avoid the temptation to reach inside for the following reasons: \n1) The truck may suddenly move\, trapping/taking you with it. \n2) Pigs are extremely large and heavy beings. Though they may not intend to hurt\, a human arm may frighten them and simple movement can crush or break bones. Instead\, offer your hand just at the opening of the truck. Some pigs will choose to come to you and sniff/lick your hand. \n3) Fear. Many of these beings have not known kind human hands in the past. This may cause them stress. \nā¤ļøšŸ·ā¤ļø Thank you for your understanding and for coming to bear witness and to be their voice. Please bring a friend. They desperately need you.
