Public invited to participate in Brock research


survey on future of animal cruelty in- vestigations


A Brock University Labour Studies


professor is looking for the public’s views on how Ontario should handle animal cru- elty investigations and humane law en- forcement in the future. Kendra Coulter, Chair of Brock’s Labour Studies Depart- ment, is leading a larger research project examining different approaches to animal cruelty enforcement. Coulter launched a survey Tuesday,


Jan. 8, asking for the public’s input on a va- riety of possible enforcement models and key related issues. The anonymous survey is available at


stopanimalcruelty.ca. It’s open to adult res- idents of Ontario, takes about 10 minutes to complete and will be online until the end of January. The launch of the survey comes a

week after an Ontario Superior Court judge deemed the current model for enforcement by the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (OSPCA) unconsti- tutional and gave the province one year to make changes. Coulter says most laws are enforced


by public police agencies. However, when it comes to crimes against animals, in On- tario, those duties are currently assigned to the OSPCA and its affiliate humane soci- eties, which are charities. “As a private entity, the OSPCA must


fundraise and is not subject to the same level of oversight as public agencies and police forces,” she says. In the fall, the OSPCA also an-


nounced that it would be backing away from investigations involving horses and farmed animals due to a lack of resources. “The provincial government will be

making significant decisions in the coming months with wide-reaching impacts for an- imals, the public, front-line officers and the web of animal-care providers,” Coulter says. “I hope such decisions will be in- formed by evidence and expert insight, but also reflect the priorities of the public.” Coulter plans to release a public re-


port once the survey results are compiled and analyzed. “The findings will be of interest to


the Ontario government as it examines next steps,” she says. “The people of Ontario care deeply about animals. This is an op- portunity to create an effective, well-coor- dinated, and properly funded cruelty investigations model.”
