Circus Protestors Bring Fight to Vaughn (York... →
“Simply put, it’s sick,” said Ms D’Alessandro. “It’s not natural for them to be doing many of the things they are made to do during the show, like standing on their hind legs or putting their paws up. For me, it’s the entertainment concept of it. If children saw how these animals were trained they would not want to see this show. People all over the world enjoy the Cirque De Soleil and they don’t...

“It’s synonymous with Shrine, circus and Shrine is like bacon and eggs,” said Bob McGregor, recorder for the Ramses Shrine Temple in Toronto, which includes the Oshawa and District Shrine Club as a member. He explained that Shriners conduct dedicated fundraisers throughout the year for children’s hospitals, but the circus is a fraternal fundraiser to cover the expenses for...

'Animals part of the 99%' say Occupy Kingston (The... →
“No being should suffer for another being’s entertainment and that’s exactly what this is,” he said. “It’s cruel punishment for the purposes of capitalist entertainment.”
This train of thought has allowed for the emergence of the Kingston Animal Rights Affinity under the auspices of Occupy Kingston.
“The reason why we are doing this is because the animals are part of the 99%, just like most of...

Shrine Circus Awes and Woes (Windsor This Week) →
Over 50 protesters hit the streets in front of the WFCU Centre, holding signs and chanting to draw awareness for animal cruelty.
“We are protesting the Shrine Circus in Windsor,” said Ashley Vallance, a real estate agent from Vision Realty. “We’re hoping we can get enough voices to be heard and hopefully next year we can keep the Shrine Circus from coming back.”

STATEMENT
There has been some discussion recently regarding the Coalition for Circus Animal Freedom (CCAF) and it’s position on animal use. Although we have stated that we reject all animal use in interviews we have done this summer, we have lacked a full public statement. To be clear, all of the organizing hub for the CCAF are ethical vegans and the CCAF is founded on a rejection of all animal use...

WatchAs we walked through the Woodbine Mall Parking lot to set up the demonstration for the 4:00 show a Shriner yelled at a female demonstrator to come over to him.

An argument ensued with the Shriner insulting the demonstrator (“Get a...

Barrie Shrine Circus/TZ Productions Show Report... →
On a hot day in mid-June, I decided to visit and witness first hand a Shrine Circus show put on by TZ Productions in Barrie, Ontario. Though TZ Productions has made many statements in the press this season (and in previous years), touting their “clean record of inspections” and the level of care for their animals, the things that I witnessed during that show demonstrated a level of...

Shrine Circus (Barrie Examiner) →
Please click on the link and leave a polite comment asking Mark Wanzel to correct this story. The Shrine Circus is NOT a fundraiser for Shrine Hospitals. Ex. Mark Wanzel, what is your source that funds from the Shrine Circus go to Shrine Hospitals? This is counter to information released by Shrine Hospitals as well as from investigative reporting on the Shrine Circus. I would really appreciate a...

Re: Shrine Circus
We will be posting responses from Shriner locals, TZ Productions and pro-Circus politicians on this site as an act of public shaming. We will keep their words unedited and, after this post, without commentary - as we feel like there is absolutely no reason to engage in dialogue with people who either profit from the misery of other animals, or ally with those who do. This gem is from Terry Fulton...

In Shriner Spending, A Blurry Line of Giving (New... →
Someone raised an important question on the facebook page today about Circus funds and Shrine Hospitals. Circuses are organized by local temples and depending on turnout and costs some stops lose money, others direct funds back to local temples and in some rare instances funds go back to Shrine Hospitals (only 2 percent of Shrine Hospitals operating budgets come from locals - of which Circus funds...
