A group in Saskatoon claims some transit users don’t feel safe on city buses and is trying to find out why. Bus Riders of Saskatoon says people have come forward and reported inappropriate touching by other passengers.
Now, suggestions are being welcomed by the group to help improve transit experiences in hopes of increasing ridership.
If transit was operated by a church, these people would campaign to have the whole system shut down.
The correct answer is “breeder”. Thank you very much.

Via email: “Do you think that the poll on the front page of www.ctvnews.ca could use a bit of carpet bombing today?”
Currently tied.
Should the prime minister rethink his plan to bring 25,000 refugees to Canada by the end of the year?

Not your grandma’s humane society;
Animal Justice’s non-profit wing launched their charter campaign last week, saying it would “ensure animals are treated as sentient beings instead of mere property, would guarantee the rights and freedoms that make life worth living, and give all animals a chance to have their interests represented in court.”
The group says there’s a gap between how Canadians care about animal welfare and how the legal system views it, and are hoping a petition draws the attention of policymakers.
“Animals don’t have legal standing to go to court and have a judge say yeah, that animal’s rights are being violated, that to me that is very sad,” said Camille Labchuk, a lawyer with Animal Justice.
Pollspotting! Does Canada need a charter of rights for animals? (To nullify the vote-splitting design of this poll, I suggest the nays be direct at the “No” option.)
