BILL 132 – BANNING BREEDS IN ONTARIO – THE SLIPPERY SLOPE

BILL 132 – BANNING BREEDS IN ONTARIO – THE SLIPPERY SLOPE

Bill 132 is extremely punitive legislation that turns law abiding Ontario residents into criminals because of the breed of dog they own, regardless of their dogs’ good temperament and good behaviour.

It was brought in by a Liberal government intent on scoring political points, and has been unopposed by opposition parties that seem to have ignored the facts.

Ontario is facing a provincial election this fall. If you want to send the party leaders a message that you oppose the banning of specific breeds, that you support rational dangerous dog legislation that holds owners accountable, and that you will be paying close attention to how they deal with this issue, send your:

NAME + ADDRESS (must be Ontario resident of voting age) + PHONE NUMBER

To this email address:

bsl@shawlein.com


All names will be compiled and forwarded to all three party leaders, with the message that this issue is important to Ontario voters, and that the criminalizing of law abiding citizens is not acceptable.

A government that is big enough to give you all you want is big enough to take it all away.
