At noon today as you are all aware, pit bull owners and lovers from all over Ontario will be meeting at Coronation Park in Toronto. Their reason is simple, but it is something no Ontario dog owner should have to face, they are meeting in an effort to save their dogs from a life of restriction because of their breed. Now some of you may say "well I live in Ontario, but I don't own a pit bull, so why should I go to the rally?" I will explain. If we allow the government to continue using BSL to control dogs, how long will it be before more breeds are added? Maybe your breed will be the next to get the order to wear their Hannibal Lecter masks in public. What would you do if suddenly YOUR dog was the banned breed?
If BSL is not erradicated in Ontario, the possibility exists for the Ontario government in all their wisdom, to begin adding more breeds, and more dogs will be targeted. It is bad enough that pit bulls have been on the government's witch hunt list for the past five years, and so many dogs have been euthenised because of it. Do we really want to pave the way for the government to kill more animals in their insane quest to make the general public feel safe? Of course we don't, but that is why it is important for ALL Ontario dog owners to attend today's rally. If you live in Ontario and share your life with a dog, any breed of dog, you owe it to yourself and your canine companion to attend today's rally and show the government of Ontario you will not stand idly by while they perform mass genocide on the pit bull breed, or any other breed for that matter. Stand up for those who have no voice! See you at Coronation Park in Toronto at noon!
