11Addressing the harms caused by both the legal and illegal wildlife trade, through the proposed Nature Accountability Act and the establishment of a Nature Intelligence System to track the wildlife trade at Canada's borders. Strengthening Bill S-15: An Act to amend the Criminal Code and the Wild Animal and Plant Protection and Regulation of International and Interprovincial Trade Act, to include large cats and stronger protections for wildlife in captivity Ensuring the principle of "One Health" is addressed in Bill C293, the Pandemic Prevention Bill, including the need to address the overlapping issues of climate change, biodiversity loss and animal welfare. Phase out prophylactic use of antibiotics in farming; Implementing recommendations of Canada's new Food Guide by supporting reduced meat consumption and increasing plant-based protein consumption; aligning institutional procurement (e.g., government-run cafeterias) to this objective; redirect financial support to incentivize farmers to transition to humane and sustainable practices and away from intensive agriculture farming practices; financially invest in the plant-based farming sector and business growth opportunities in the plant-based food sector.
Support the establishment of a seaside sanctuary for cold water cetaceans in a bay off the coast of Port Hilford, Nova Scotia and support the rescue and transfer of cetaceans retired from the entertainment industry to this or other seaside sanctuaries. World Animal Protection would like to see the Government of Canada acknowledge and act on the importance of animal welfare to addressing the biggest challenges of our time including pandemic risk, antimicrobial resistance, climate change and biodiversity loss. Pass significant restrictions on the commercial breeding, farming, keeping, display and trade in wild animals that carry significant risks to animal health and welfare, human health and safety and our environment; We also encourage the Federal Government to work towards implementing the recommendations in our Animal Protection Index (API) at: https://api.worldanimalprotection.org/country/canada. Require the protection of animals and their welfare in disaster/emergency preparedness, response and risk reduction plans and strategies Provide incentives to encourage farmers to transition to more humane and sustainable farming practices; Promote increased production and consumption of plant-based foods as recommended by Canadas Food Guide to promote healthy diets and reduce carbon emissions; Phase-out the prophylactic use of antimicrobials in farming through better animal welfare practices.
