Even though I was told that there is no place for a shelter in this county - when I asked the local MLA for assistance way back in June 07, to seek out an unused farmstead, since he has sat on every Board of Directors in this county since 1975 - and knows anyone and everyone, I got the regular tap dance.....
--------------------------------------------------------
Quote: "the Minster of Municipal Affairs and Housing came back with the response that there is no space available for animal shelters at this time. They are working with the Task Force on Affordable Housing with regards to making any surplus properties available to municipalities in accordance with government’s commitment to affordable housing."

An article came to my attention from Sept/07

I smiled and I'm grateful that, even though it is only a Dog Rescue/Shelter, that someone had enough funds to come into this county (relocated here) and will bring new awareness to shelters and rescues.
I emailed the gal and hope she has great success!!! (even though this does not help me in any shape or form - this woman is an example of the common use and benefits of a shelter! Otherwords, they better get use to the idea!)
Well I'm outta here, I'm up to my armpitts with packing and chores!
