That there are serious problems with the operation of horse-drawn carriages on 21st-century city streets is irrefutable. I agree with Ms. Forel - let's advance to an inclusive conversation involving all the stakeholders. This industry has to evolve, animal welfare issues must be addressed, and the City can help broker a compromise. Electric carriages are a win-win solution, which can satisfy tourists' demands for both an historical experience and a cruelty-free activity, increase carriage companies' profits, and allow for the retirement of the carriage horses to sanctuary. We all understand the problem. It's now time to focus on the solution - and get it done.
