I think certified humane does mean something. Temple Grandin has my respect. I don't think Earl's is suggesting Alberta producers aren't as good as the certified humane producers but rather suggesting this is just a way to make sure these standards are met. Earl's can't go around to a hundred different farms and monitor their practices. Certified humane can and does.
Stuff like this should be welcomed by AB producers. If the job can be done in a better way then by all means change. Do it better. Here's the book on how to do it better. If it is all just non sense then I'm wrong. But it's just generally a bad idea in business to get your nose out of joint when someone one ups you.
