Great article. It is nice to see people supporting animal issues as well. Usually it is the animals that are forgotten.
I was watching BT televison a few weeks ago and they were going on and on about the Salvation Army. I emailed the show, asking if they could get it out that animal shelters need support too during the holiday season. Sadly, they didn't mention it. ACO22 |

What fantastic news It is very good to hear that at this time of year and with all the talk of recession especially for Oshawa that these businesses have found it in their hearts to help the animals in Durham Region. We can only hope that the politicians in Oshawa and Whitby also can help with passing the zoning regulations for a new piece of land.
Merry Christmas to all especially to the animals who are defenseless inhabitants of this planet.

I listened to "Animal Housecalls" last night on CP24 and a representatibve from the Durham Humane Society was on. Apparently they have had an incredible response to their request for help from the community to help build a new shelter. Many tradesmen have responded with promises of free building materials and labour once they have found a place for a new shelter. She also said there have been many donations received some from as far away as England. Ruby Richards called in to say that the one thing holding up the project is they have not found a property that is suitable and zoned properly. They have been looking primarily in Whitby and Ajax. The municipal governments of Whitby and Ajax are dragging their feet on rezoning any property that might be suitable. grrr
I am not usually an activist but I wonder if the public got involved in a targeted email campaign/petition to get these politicians to seriously consider the problem and pass the zoning bylaws that would be necessary for a new suitable shelter property. I am not sure who these politicians are, but maybe someone here knows the names. If we get the names, we should be able to find the email addresses. Ruby mentioned that they had found a few suitable properties but they were not zoned properly and rezoning them was a problem.
