EVOLVE OUR PRISON FARMS

The Correctional Service of Canada is introducing a new prison farm program.

Prisoners will farm thousands of goats and farm and slaughter cows for the private sector, in violation of human rights and trade laws.

All of the milk and meat produced in the prison program will be sold to the public.

Evolve Our Prison Farms is a research campaign documenting Canada’s prison farm story, advocating ethical prison farms, and opposing the exploitation of animals and incarcerated persons.

REPORTS:

“I thought the whole aspect of prison was rehabilitation and public safety, not about money. This is all about the money.”
