It's very easy to change ones habits, if you want to eat meat, eggs etc buy them from local ethical farmers. Same with your pet food, buy brands that support ethical farming and don't shop at pet stores that sell animals, ANY animals. CFIA may not be doing much but YOU as a consumer can simply vote with your dollars.

I do my best to buy everything locally, my veggies, fruit, meat etc. My eggs come from the local farm where I see the chickens running around having a nice life, my meat comes from my sister who raises cattle and sheep so I know exactly how they are raised etc, and I also support the local 4-H kids where I know and can ask how their animals are raised. You just have to make a little effort to source your food.
