Animals and the Law (Law Society of Ontario)

Jurisprudence and legislation reflect this new awareness with landmark changes to the Criminal Code about animal cruelty, Family Court judges considering custody and access to pets within a divorcing household, and landlords and employers rethinking their pet policies. Spend the morning with our expert presenters on this evolving area to get up to speed.
