I HOPE YOU ENJOYED yesterday’s article, Backyard Chickens, where we broke down some of the issues surrounding the consumption of animal products in our society, and suggested that if you eat eggs, perhaps you should think about raising some chickens of your own. Well, a couple of months ago, I went to interview a not-so-mysterious local woman that I will refer to only as the “Toronto Chicken Lady”. She raises several chickens in her own back yard in mid-town Toronto, and she operates the website TorontoChickens.com, preaching the gospel about backyard chickens and urging politicians to legalize the practice. I had to doctor the video so that her identity would remain a secret, but we’re very thankful that she agreed for the clip to be posted online, so that we can spread the good word about backyard chickens. Enjoy!
