and BAN future adult pitbulls from entering Canada from the US. That is some mind blowing stupid stuff.
I don’t really agree with all of the penalties you’ve suggested for owners but I can’t understand why anyone would import a rescue dog from the states when we have so many sitting in shelters here. If someone wants a dog for companionship then there are already enough available domestically for that purpose.

Importation should be outlawed at the very least until our shelters aren’t full of dogs waiting to be euthanized. The idea that this saves the lives of dogs is a little misleading, for every dog that was imported and saved a local rescue doesn’t get adopted and is put down.
