Bulls to Run for Royal Agricultural Winter Fair Launch in Toronto

October 26, 2012 Updated: September 19, 2018

On October 30th, six 2000-pound bulls will run through the streets of Toronto to mark the opening of the 2012 Royal Agricultural Winter Fair.

All animals exhibited at the Winter Fair, including these bulls, will be forced to participate in rodeo activities and will be put through the stress of being paraded around auction rings, and being chased by “cowboys” up Bay Street in downtown Toronto. This is a spectacle which should not be allowed.

WHAT CAN YOU DO

1. Sign the petition calling on Mayor Rob Ford and Toronto City Council to revoke the permission given to the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair and to cancel this event.

2. Contact and pressure these individuals involved in organizing and promoting the event.
