I think it is definitely a good move for Saputo to cut ties with Chilliwack right now. This all shows the power of social media, and especially the petition, which got about 100,000 signatures in only a few days. It goes to show that the 'consumer' and the general public have strong voices and can speak out for change, and they will be listened to very quickly.
I dislike waste generally, but destroying the milk puts out a powerful message, and Saputo, being a huge company and household name is really helping the cause, I believe.
Animal cruelty will not be tolerated in the industry. I am glad to hear so many people have backed this. It will make a big mark on conditions for the future...and may even possibly be the beginning of other welfare considerations for factory-farm animals?
Oh, and a huge thanks to the whistleblower on that farm...and to the people who organised the petition.
