How are ag-gag laws justified when animal cruelty is systemic in Canada's food systems? Is the rhetoric used by politicians to pass ag-gag laws a matter of an urban/rural divide? Does seeing more animal suffering in a world full of violent media really change anything for the animals? 

On part 2 of this special two-part episode of Animocracy, I continue the deep dive with Dr. Anelyse Weiler and PhD candidate Tayler Zavitz about their recently published article entitled, Nothing to Hide: How Governments Justify the Adoption of Ag-gag Laws. I had so many questions after reading the article and we were having such a fun time exploring this topic that the interview went longer than expected.

Be sure to listen to Episode 5, Part 1 first, if you haven't already, to hear the entire conversation. Thank you for listening.
