Camille Labchuk to speak at Brock University, St. Catharines

Camille Labchuk, Animal Rights Lawyer from Animal Justice will be speaking at Brock – Tuesday, November 6th at 7 pm in South Block, Room 204.  Her topic is ‘The Rise of Animal Rights Law in Canada’.  Camille writes: “Most people are outraged by stories about animal abuse, yet paradoxically,
Canada has the worst animal protection laws in the western world. But with animal issues currently grabbing news headlines, it has become impossible for the legal system to ignore their suffering. This talk will explore the legal status of animals in Canada and how each of us can play a role in improving the laws protecting them.” This event is co-sponsored by the Department of Political Science at Brock and Niagara Action for Animals.
