HELP BRING BILL BRUCE TO AUSTRALIA: URGENT Bill Bruce has accepted the Panel’s invitation to come to Australia under its banner to meet with decision-makers, media and others as part of a campaign to bring to public notice in Victoria, NSW and WA the merits of the Calgary model in contrast to the deficiencies of the BSL model in respect of public safety, responsible ownership, good welfare and fairness. A revolving door of VCAT hearings ; Supreme Court appeals; VCAT rehearings; and long periods of incarceration for dogs who have done nothing wrong, is unsustainable and offers no solution. BSL needs to be changed in favour of a Calgary-type model. His visit is a one-off opportunity for change. The Panel’s Foundation has established with the Commonwealth Bank of Australia a special purpose account to raise funds to finance all the costs of the visit to Australia by Bill Bruce. With pledges of support from other groups , we have set a target of $8K. It’s a lot, but we also wish him, for example, to visit WA where its dog laws are under review on the basis that the pitbull terrier be classified, without more, as a ‘dangerous dog’. It will be known that in NSW there is also a review of the law in train. We have approximately 2 weeks in which to raise the funds. To donate, please click on the link.
