The public trust is being violated regularly behind a veil of SECRECY.
Scam artists use the name "non-profit" to mislead people and are usually NOT registered as a charity.
Many people don't recognize the signs of a bad rescue.
Bad rescues will try to put themselves out there as though they are "good", unfortunately many people find out the hard way. After they've been scammed, mislead, harassed, threatened, stalked, slandered, emotionally and mentally abused, when all they were trying to do was help an animal in need. These corrupt people use vulnerable animals who have no voice to take advantage of generous communities seeking to help!

We're not trying to make it harder for the honest rescues, that's why we're asking those in the field and in our communities to help us make changes that will also improve their situation and raise awareness.
If we want to stop crime, the law needs to apply to EVERYONE!
Right now there's so many loopholes and criminals are running amuck everywhere and hindering the honest rescues.
Pocketing and misusing funds that should have gone to animals. If there's misuse of funds chances are there will be animal abuse or neglect, because those kinds of people don't have a conscience or integrity.
They are taking away support and money that would have gone to help honest rescues!
Unfortunately their abusive behavior continues because there's no bylaws to regulate it.

THE SOLUTION:
We believe that ANYONE asking for donations from the public should be:
Step 1. REQUIRED to REGISTER as a "Charity".
Step 2. REQUIRED to be Transparent and Accountable for ALL donations and their Behavior.
Step 3. REQUIRED to have ALL Financial Records Available to the PUBLIC AT ALL TIMES.

WE NEED YOUR HELP to Protect Animals and Our Communities and fix the loopholes!
Let us come together and urge each and every "Unregistered Rescue" to Register as a Charity and to follow the three step requirements!
PLEASE take the TIME, to stop the CRIME!

REGISTERING INFO:
Many people have been wrongly informed that it costs a lot of money to register their rescue and then decide not to register based on that.
Anyone can call the Charities Directorate at: 1-800-267-2384 to register as a Charity.
**FACT** THERE'S NO COST TO REGISTER AS A "CHARITY" AND YOU CAN APPLY AT ANY TIME.

There are many benefits to registering a rescue...
They will be able to give tax receipts and MORE people will be willing to donate (which means more help and more lives saved!!), they can also sign up for contests that only Registered Charities can enter and win prizes etc. It's a Win Win situation!

Will YOU Help us in this endeavor?

Together WE can make change HAPPEN!

To the best reason for snow. Me and my daughters built this

Signed
One happy father

She is having too much fun in her fort

Today while turning on to Caroline off ofBruce , ( which is not a one way mind you ) there was a car that was turning from Caroline onto Bruce taking up the whole road . They moved over the smallest amount so that I could turn but forced me to turn right into a snow bank. Not only did I get stuck but the person in the car saw me get stuck and then just turned and took off down the road . No help no nothing. Thanks to this car I was left alone for almost 10 minutes reversing and trying to get myself out ... Thanks for the help cause you don't know how to share the road ..... You have been spotted

to the man who came out of his home in the cold to assist a few students who were pushing a non running car off university road near Crawford...Thank you for your help!! you have been spotted

To the lady who so graciously went out if her way to bring my lost debit card all the way from, I'm guessing, the gas station just north of E C Rowe on Howard to the TD Bank on Dougall so it could be returned to me, THANK YOU! That was very kind of you. It is wonderful to know that our city has caring, honest people.

To the jerk who smashed into my car at the Zehrs parking lot on Lauzon and Tecumseh at 5:40pm yesterday afternoon. And spend the time to pick up and hide the broken prices from my from passenger side bumper and not be man enough to leave a note. Congratulations on being the 2014 douche bag of the year.
If anybody seen this happen please let me know who this jerk was or what he/ she drove. Thanks Windsor.

After the big snow storm the other day, I had used the snow brush from my car to help my sister clear off hers, and had left it in my garage. I got off work last night at the WFCU and discovered that it had snowed and when I got in my car I realized I had nothing to clear it off with. The gentleman that had just pulled in next to me had leant me his without me even having to ask. Thank you, thank you for being such a gentleman. It was truly appreciated. :)
