I can't imagine a more trivial reason for penning and causing distress to wildlife. It shouldn't take a university course in ethics to see the moral incoherence of protecting some canids (see your provincial legislation protecting domestic dogs) and using others as objects to train canids. Arbitrary laws are by their nature irrational, and irrational laws cannot be moral laws. If you're wondering, that comment on arbitrariness, rationality, and ethics is basically Immanuel Kant. He may not have thought that humans involved in such practice (as what will be enabled by these proposed legislative changes) were wronging the animals involved, but I'm confident he would have thought that they were wronging themselves through such conduct. It's baffling that in 2023, this is something being seriously considered in your legislature.
