Humane Education
|
Education is not the filling
of a pail but the lighting of a fire.
William Butler Yeats

| Why should Humane Education be taught in
all NS schools?
- All children in the province would be
taught. Right now its only available when the hardworking volunteers
doing Animal Rescue can spare the time.
- Our children would be safer because they
would all learn how to interact with animals properly
- It would save a lot of money for the
future. More pets would be spayed and neutered. More would be
microchipped.
- Children would understand why buying
animals from pet stores supports puppy mills and backyard breeders.
Webmaster Note: If you live in Nova Scotia and
believe that safer communities tomorrow will start with Humane Education
in the public school system today, please contact the
NS Minister of Education
