We live in one hell of a chaotic nanny state in Canada.
On Tuesday, moments after reading an official city email warning New Westminster residents that their friendly dogs must be licensed, leashed and kept far away from others to ensure that everyone “feels safe,” I saw the news that an Ontario man caught on video trying to stab someone during a road rage incident had been arrested and released in a span of two days. He was in breach of two court conditions when he was arrested, too. But now he’s out on bail. We can’t allow a chihuahua to lunge at someone, but a knife-wielding man gets a pass. So much for that feeling of safety.
