Ontario, Canada



In 2005, Ontario passed a ban on all "pit bulls" and any dog that may appear to be a "pit bull."



Ontario officials claimed that pit bulls are "different" than other types of dogs and inflict injuries unlike other dogs. Despite the fact that there was no evidence to support this claim, a ban on "pit bulls" was enacted, and continues to be enforced in Ontario.



Ontario officials dismissed the fact that only ONE of Canada's 45 dog bite-related (since 1964) has involved a dog reported to be a "pit bull" dog.
