| Appeal of Ontario pit bull ban to be heard next week |
An appeal of Ontario's legislation banning pit bulls in the province will be heard in the Court of Appeal next week.
In late March, the provincial government claimed victory after the controversial law survived a constitutional challenge.
But a judge did change the law in two ways by ruling the ban on pit bull terriers fails to refer to a specific type or breed of dog.
Superior Court Justice Thea Herman also ruled against letting the province rely on vets to identify those dogs captured by the law.
Lawyer Clayton Ruby, who led the challenge, argued the ban is unconstitutional and too broad because it bans all pit bulls.
He says the two earlier victories were "not enough" and appealed Herman's decision to the Court of Appeal for Ontario. The Attorney General's office cross-appealed and all appeals will be heard next Monday and Tuesday. |

For
over 28 years the Super Dogs show has been
entertaining audiences across North America.
But this year at the Royal Winter Fair,
one of the crowd favourites is missing.
Tadpole is one of the most popular Super
Dogs. He’s also an English Staffordshire
Terrier. According to Toronto Animal Services,
they received a call from an attendee at
the fair. As a result, the city informed
the show that Tadpole had to go. |
