Other News
In regards to the rally story – Stand Up and Defend Horses Canada RALLY – a few corrections are to be noted.
1. The name who began the rally is
Catherine McPherson of Kingston not Rolson ??
2. The ” last Sunday” of October is the true day that Kingston has made as the:
NATIONAL DAY OF COMMEMOATION OF THE HORSES” not the 26th.
The Kingston group has done a lot in regards to defending/helping horses and please note we do this on our own.
Thank you – Catherine McPherson
