Canada ’s meat, dairy and egg industries want you to believe that animals farmed for food in Canada are all treated humanely.

Jessica Scott-Reid is a freelance journalist and independent animal advocate.

She says Canada 's "humane" slaughter standards and animal care laws help reassure consumers that animals are treated well, both in life and death.

The truth is hidden down long gravel roads and behind big warehouse walls, industrial animal farming is often routinely cruel.
