Bob Ladouceur of St. Lad's Farms has gone on the record as saying that he has begun the process which will lead to his nine staff members being laid off.
“I’ll spend the week preparing layoff notices,” the Ruscom, Ont. breeder has told the CBC.
Ladouceur stated that he doubted that most of his employees would be back, but that he would still keep raising the young horses that he currently has.
“I have to continue to grow them," Ladouceur said, "and hope the Liberal government will give us a chance in our industry to make these animals functional as race horses. That’s the reason they were bred.”

This tragic but inevitable
This tragic but inevitable thanks to the liberals, the leadership of our industry still doesn't get it, we cannot play nice with the government, we need some action that will get the public's attention.
Maybe we need CBC etc at Kitchener on Tuesday morning!
Where's the class action law suit???????
Who's next?
