NDP Tables Animal Cruelty Bill


Le NPD prend les devants en proposant un nouveau projet de loi ( C-558 )semblable au projet de Mark Holland's ( C-373 ). Le NPD veut faire voter à la chambre des communes une loi plus sévère contre la cruauté envers les animaux.

On June 4th, NDP Member of Parliament Penny Priddy tabled Bill C-558, a private member’s bill to amend the animal cruelty section of the Criminal Code. This bill is very similar to Liberal MP Mark Holland’s Bill C-373. Although the NDP has strongly supported Bill C-373, this bill will not come up for debate in the House of Commons for some time because Mr. Holland’s assigned priority number for a private member’s bill is way down on the list.

Ms. Priddy’s assigned number is higher on the list, so her bill received First Reading on June 4th. It will begin Second Reading when the House resumes in the fall. It is not permissible to have two identical bills on the table, so the NDP had to make their bill different from C-373. However, the fundamental concepts remain.

The CFHS wholeheartedly commends Mr. Holland for his dedication to improving our animal cruelty laws; he has been, and continues to be, a strong supporter of better legislation. The CFHS still supports Bill C-373 and also supports the NDP bill, C-558.

The House of Commons does not sit during the summer months, so we will be connecting with politicians and supporters towards the end of the summer.

Je ramène ce message plus haut, pour mémoire.

Évidemment, à cause des élections fédérales, il faudra recommencer le processus législatif.
