OK you've sent out a form letter about something I'm sort of interested in. I'm too lazy to research the subject. How about you explain to me what this bill does to further animal welfare causes. How many extra employees the government will be able to employ to put it into effect. How many tax dollars it will soak up? Why a lobby group based outside Canada is being allowed to have input into our legislative system? How vague is the language in the bill? Does it allow charges to be laid against farmers with a sick chicken or cow? Does it consider altering the animals as cruelty (dehorning)? Does a coral dying in a tank due to neglect mean charges can be laid? Please provide some more info if you want me to call my MP. I'm a typical Canadian too lazy to research, I like to just jump on the soap box.

Thanks
