As children we are taught that it is wrong to judge people based on their looks. Body-type, race, hairstyle, none of these things indicate the value of a person. So why does the government feel it's okay to ban 'Pit Bulls' based on their looks?

So-called 'Pit Bulls' are actually four different breeds, plus any dog that looks substantially similar.

Punish the deed, not the breed!

Dog bites and attacks are a serious problem, no one is debating that. But breed bans are not the answer. No breed of dog is inherently more dangerous than another; responsible dog owners can and do make the difference. Even if you have never allowed a Pit Bull-type dog into your heart, this issue affects every dog owner. "All breeds and mixes are now just a bad news story away, one pen stroke away from being wiped out by our government," points out Dog Legislation Council of Canada President, LeeAnn O'Reilly.

Expert opinion

When asked about the repeal of breed specific legislation (known now as Bill 222), Dalton McGuinty said "it would not be considered," and went on to say, "We got the best advice we could and put in place legislation we think upholds public safety." How can this be true when McGuinty didn't listen to the experts? In fact, 43 of the 44 experts were totally against the ban. Proof of this can be found in page 2 of "Bill 132; A Concise Summary of The Public Hearings."

Reactionary legislation?
Look at "Canadian Statistics for Fatal Dog Attacks" and decide for yourself if ALL Pit Bull type dogs are killers, especially when there have been hundreds of thousands of these dogs in Canada over the past fifty years.
The media has somehow managed to promote the untruth that all Pit Bulls and substantially similar dogs are dangerous, however FACTS do not warrant their hype, or this ban. Help us to repel this unfair ban, and save the lives of innocent dogs.
