The McGill Herbivore Society has written an open letter to McGill asking that the University adopt a DefaultVeg plan: this would involve the University transitioning to plant-based menus while providing the possibility to opt-in to animal food products.

(Anyone who is a member of the McGill student body, faculty, staff, alumni or broader university community is invited to participate)
Des plans alimentaires similaires ont été adoptés par d’autres universités canadiennes. Voici une citation de la lettre ouverte:
“The University of British Columbia in 2019 accomplished the goal of 47% of their total entrees in residence dining being plant-based, demonstrating that large-scale changes can be done at such vast institutions. Stanford University’s residence dining menus are currently 80% vegetarian and >50% plant-based… the University of Ottawa, University of Waterloo, and McMaster University have launched 100% plant-based dining concepts on their campuses and the University of Winnipeg opened their first ever 100% plant-based dining hall in September 2020.”
Cette initiative permettrait de promouvoir le bien-être animal et la durabilité écologique, étant donné que l’élevage est une des principales causes de la maltraitance des animaux ainsi que de la dégradation importante de notre environnement.
