Thank you, Mr. McLeod. The motion is in order. To the motion. Ms. Bisaro.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I’d like to speak a bit to this bill. I do feel that the Dog Act as presented is a far improved act from what we had before. There are certainly provisions in there which are going to make things much easier for prosecutions to happen.

I do have a concern, however, with the section that deals with accepted activities and the section which allows for exceptions and exemptions to certain activities. I don’t feel that part of the bill is necessary. I stated that yesterday and I just wanted to restate it.

That said, the bill as a whole is far better than what we currently have and I do support this going forward.

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. To the motion.

Question has been called. Bill 16, An Act to Amend the Dog Act, has received third reading.
