BURLINGTON, ON

 

Demonstrators descended on the truck laying on its side at the intersection of Appleby Line and Harvester Road that was carrying 150+ pigs headed for a nearby slaughterhouse.

At 11 am this morning it was getting a little rowdy with one demonstrator arrested and police pushing others out of the way.

The police were handling the demonstrators while the firemen did their best to handle the pigs – who seemed a little perplexed by it all.  A video attached to a tweet is set out below – enjoy.

The crisis management people at Fearmans must be wondering how to deal with this one.
