Animal Welfare Media was fortunate enough to spend a couple of days filming in and around Toronto with Animal Justice, a group of young, passionate animal advocates working within Canada’s legal system to change laws and minds across the country.

We were struck by the intelligence, tenacity and legal prowess of this group of animal heroes, and were thrilled to be able to tell their story.

Before filming in Toronto, we met the gang from AJ at Wishing Well Sanctuary, about an hour’s drive north of the city, where we were also greeted by Brenda Bronfman, the proprietor of the sanctuary. Brenda showed us around her beautiful and peaceful farm, and we were introduced to some truly charismatic residents, including a host of pigs, sheep, cows, chickens and one sassy llama. Jinx the goat really hit it off with our Director of Photography, and a lifelong friendship was formed.
