MPP Jack McLaren on his new animal rights bill

This morning at the Ottawa Valley Farm Show, MPP Jack McLaren previewed an animal cruelty bill he plans to introduce at Queen's Park.

Back in 2009, the Provincial Animal Welfare Act was passed to address the ways animal are kept in environments like roadside zoos and puppy mills. But McLaren calls that act flawed. That's why next week, the MPP for Carleton-Mississippi Mills will be introducing his new bill. For more about what he wants to see changed, we' reached MPP MacLaren on the phone.
