LEVELS OF ENFORCEMENT UP TO CGOUNCILS

SPCA defends dog fines

Dear Editor:

With reference to ycur article
Dog fines called excessive.

Readers should be informed that
both the city and the district of
North Vancouver have contracted
with the SPCA to perform animal
control within their jurisdictions.

As such, all fines fevied are in
accordance with the existing
animal control bylaws and as
prescribed by same. These bylaws
are very strict with respect to ‘dogs
at large.’ No dog may be off the

owner's except when
leashed.

As a humane organization we
firmly believe that dogs should
never be on the street except when
they are properly leashed. The
reason for this is self-explanatory
(the safety of the dog, disease,
bitings, etc.) and appears to be
recognized across North America
as virtually all towns and cities do
have such legislation.

Our staff are, as part of their
duties, expected to enforce these

Viewpoints ‘fascinating’

Dear Editor:

The columns by Doug Collins
and Bob Hunter in the Sept. 25
edition on the subject of compen-
sation to Japanese internees during
the Seco.1d World War fascinated
me.

t guess the only explanation is
that Mr. Collins wrote from the
perspective of one who had ‘‘been
there’” and knew. Whereas Mr.
Hunter wrote from the perspective

of ane who had not been there and
didn’t know.

Although t agree fully with Mr.
Collins and disagree fully with Mr.
Hunter, | am not one of those who
call for poor Bob’s head on a plat-
ter. A difference of opinion inakes
for a better paper. But in all
honesty Bob, | think you just fail-
ed History 100.
