CANADA - The Chair of Sask Pork says Canada's pork producers are committed to the comfort and safety of their pigs during transport, writes Bruce Cochrane.In Canada livestock can remain in the transport trailer for a maximum of 36 hours before being offloaded for feed and rest however there have been calls recently for that time limit should be shortened.Florian Possberg, the Chair of the Saskatchewan Pork Development Board, points out offloading animals at a common rest area puts them at increased risk of exposure to disease which is a much greater animal welfare concern.

　　布鲁斯·科克伦(Bruce Cochrane)写道，据萨斯喀彻温省(Sask)猪肉协会主席称，加拿大猪肉生产商允诺在运输中为他们的猪提供舒适与安全。牲畜运输在加拿大畜牧业留有最多三十六小时的牲畜歇息及进食光阴。然而最近有呼吁请求缩短光阴限制。萨斯喀彻温省猪肉协会海外发展部主席佛罗莱恩·珀斯伯格(Florian Possberg)指出，把动物卸在公共歇息区域约摸会增添疾病感染的风险，这是一个有待考虑的动物福利问题。
