The current emissions level is already too high if the increased population is taken into account. Many more people are affected than was the case 20 years ago. In the last three weeks I have experienced one afternoon of very strong stockyards odour and a week before that on a Friday evening rest Read more

We should be closing dopwn this slaughterhjouse not expanding it. It is a place of torture where they skin cows alive while they are pregnant. How can anyone in the world support this?

Please do not approve this request. For years now, the communities of Rockcliffe-Smythe the Stockyards district and the Junction have been exposed to daily treatments of putrid smells coming from the slaughter houses and meat processing plants on Glen Scarlett Road. Read more

As a resident of the Stockyards neighbourhood, I am opposed to the release of more toxic emissions into our air. As it stands there are enough toxins in the air due to the slaughterhouses and meat packing plants in the area. Read more

To who it may concern: I am writing to oppose the increase in emissions by St. Helen’s Slaughterhouse. I live in the Stockyards neighbourhood, and will be directly affected by this increase in a very negative way. Read more

There is no way that permission should be granted to increase toxic emissions. This place needs to be shut down, period. Increasing the toxic emissions is irresponsible, harmful and disgraceful.

I have lived in the district since 1971, and remember the Ontario Stockyards. The stockyards smelled awful but provided thousands of jobs to people, many living close by, but the area declined since no one built new commercial properties. Read more

I strongly object to permission being given for St Helens Meat Packers to increase emissions from their business at Glen Scarlett Road. It is near residential homes on Terry Drive and Rockcliffe Avenue and near the Rockcliffe middle school. Read more

Our family lives very close by to this animal slaughterhouse and the stench that comes from is disgusting and we can’t even enjoy a walk or run in the neighborhood, especially in the summer time with the awful smell and heat combined. Read more

The stench that all too frequently emanates from the meat packing plants is bad enough. Now they want to make it worse. This interferes with the enjoyment of my property as well as my patronage of local small businesses. Read more

I do not wish to increase noise, odour and pollution to this plant. The area has been growing very quickly into a more residential area. There is a huge impact to the quality of life to the neighbourhood. Thanks
