The Acting Speaker (Mr Ted Arnott): Questions and comments?
Mr Joseph N. Tascona (Barrie-Simcoe-Bradford): I’m doing the lead for the official opposition shortly, but I want to say in response to the Attorney General and his parliamentary assistant that our party shares the Attorney General’s and the public’s desire to stop attacks by dangerous dogs. Having been a victim of a dog attack myself, I express my sympathy to all victims of dog attacks. We have concerns about how the Attorney General went about developing this bill and the lack of details on enforcement. It has not been totally thought through, because there are fundamental questions that the Attorney General cannot answer which undermine the legitimacy of this bill. We agree that a new approach is needed to protect the public from dangerous dogs. But the fundamental question is, is this bill the right approach? It is our job, as the opposition party, to make sure the law is clear, effective and credible. This bill leaves more questions than it answers. We intend to pursue these quest
