Montreal Mayor, Valérie Plante, will not ban the horse caleches in Old Montreal before 2020. This animal cruelty has to end now. Here are the details.

There have been at least four accidents involving carriage horses since 2014, as well as several hundred citizen complaints over the treatment of the horses, according to data provided by the city.

There were also 14 tickets given out in 2016 and 2017 for infractions related to horse health and the state of the carriages.

The city's new regulation would prohibit horse-drawn carriages anywhere on Montreal's territory as of Dec. 21, 2019.

Sauve said the timeline would give drivers and owners enough time find other work, noting the administration had been promising to end the carriage horse industry since the municipal election campaign last fall.
