Traduction de «animal d'abattage » (Français → Anglais) :

66 (1) Subject to subsection (4), an equine animal and a bird, other than an ostrich, rhea and emu, may be presented for slaughter in a registered establishment only if the operator has been provided with a completed animal information document in respect of the animal by the owner or producer of the animal, or their authorized representative.

According to our analysis, setting a floor price for cull cows has become inevitable because, even taking into account the projected increases in slaughter capacity in Canada, it is plain that by 2007, even if there is a significant increase in slaughter capacity, there will still be more than 300,000 cull cows, non fed animals, that it will be impossible to slaughter because there will be no slaughterhouses for them.
