The Stampede is under fire from another animal rights group.
The British League Against Cruel Sports has launched a campaign asking Ottawa to end what it calls animal cruelty at rodeo events.
The group has the support of more than 50 British MPs, who have signed a motion in the British House of Commons.
It also wants UK travel agents to stop offering Stampede travel packages.
The Stampede tells CTV its animals are treated humanely and get the best care possible.
