To the Legislative Assembly of Ontario:
WHEREAS penned dog hunting facilities are cruel and inhumane to the wild animals who are confined for the purpose of training dogs to hunt and kill them;
WHEREAS this deplorable and unethical practice is prohibited in every other province; and
WHEREAS Ontario stopped issuing new licenses in 1997 to phase out train and trial areas, and issuing new licenses after 25 years is a massive step backward on animal rights and wildlife protection in our province;
THEREFORE, we the undersigned, petition the Legislative Assembly of Ontario to immediately stop all plans to accept applications and issue new licenses to operate train and trial areas in Ontario.
Like this to spread the word:
