WINNIPEG\u2014Animal Justice is extending an exciting early Christmas gift to Manitoba Senator Don Plett: an all-expenses paid trip to Japan in cargo, to help him understand the brutal reality of Canada\u2019s live horse export industry\u2014a practice he has defended by stalling legislation in the Senate that would end it.<\/p>\n

Senator Plett has been using procedural tactics since May to delay Bill C-355, legislation that would ban the live export of horses for slaughter. If passed, the bill would end the suffering of thousands of horses shipped by air each year in dangerous and inhumane conditions. Senator Plett prevented the bill from being voted on before the Senate wrapped up for the holidays.<\/p>\n

Animal Justice\u2019s generous offer comes on the heels of Senator Plett\u2019s recent visit<\/a> to the Winnipeg airport, where he personally stood by and watched as horses confined in wooden crates were loaded onto a plane, bound for slaughter in Japan. (Video here<\/a>)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\ufeffWhile Senator Plett isn\u2019t shy<\/a> about spending taxpayer dollars and has one of the largest expense reports of all senators, Animal Justice is ready to help him see the results of his efforts up close without taking a cent from the public purse. And since Senator Plett has shown a passion for travel,<\/a> Animal Justice believes that he can put that enthusiasm to good use on the grueling journey that thousands of Canadian horses endure every year.<\/p>\n

As part of his itinerary, Senator Plett would board a late-night red-eye flight in Winnipeg, and he\u2019d spend over 28 hours (or often longer<\/a>)\u00a0standing in a cramped wooden crate in the cargo hold, without food, water, or rest. Then, as part of this unique travel opportunity, the Senator would get a chance to witness horses succumbing to injuries mid-flight or, in some cases, dying during the journey.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s not at all. Upon landing, Senator Plett, along with his fellow horse passengers, would be drenched with a powerful, eye-stinging disinfectant. And like the dehydrated horses that accompany him on the flight, the Senator would of course be welcome to desperately lap up a few drops of the chemical concoction into his parched mouth\u2014a perfect refreshment before a lengthy trip by truck to a Japanese quarantine facility.<\/p>\n

\u201cSenator Plett seems very invested in this cruel industry, so we thought he\u2019d appreciate the chance to experience it for himself,\u201d said Camille Labchuk, lawyer and executive director of Animal Justice. \u201cIt\u2019s one thing to watch horses being crammed into a plane. It\u2019s another to live their reality\u2014standing for hours on end in a confined space, exhausted and terrified. If Senator Plett really believes live exports are acceptable, this trip should be no problem for him.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the Senate adjourning for the holiday break without voting on Bill C-355, largely thanks to Senator Plett\u2019s stalling tactics, there would be no better time for him to pack his bags\u2014and his wooden crate\u2014and take the trip of a lifetime to discover more about the industry he\u2019s working so hard to protect.\u201d<\/p>\n
