Lift the Pit Bull Ban in Montreal

The Issue

Montreal has sentenced thousands of dogs to be euthanized regarding the BSL ban.

Pet owners are losing their loved ones, and stray pit-type dogs are having their lives ended because they have traces of DNA that belongs to the pit bull breed. 

Pit bulls are NOT a threat to humans, just like Rott Weilers, German Shepards, Dalmatians, Dobermans, and many other breeds that have been threatened to have their lives taken away from them because of the way they were born. 

Any dog is capable of hurting a human being under one of two circumstances: they are being ATTACKED, or they are TRAINED to do so. It is just as much a persons fault as the dogs if they harm anybody, because of HUMAN INTERACTION. It is the PEOPLE that should be locked up, not the dogs! 

This is the EXACT same thing as racial, or religious discrimination: killing someone solely based off of their race/religion.

I would not ask you to lift the pitbull ban if I couldn't one-hundred percent guarantee you these "violent" dogs could be trained to control their tempers if given to the right owners.

This is not right, Please lift the Pit Bull Ban in Montreal!
