Yet another lawyer appointed


 

The provincial government has appointed yet another lawyer to the Animal Care Review Board.



James Rhodes of Kitchener is the 20th lawyer now on the board. He has been appointed to a two-year term.


It hears appeals from livestock and poultry farmers and pet owners whose animals were seized by officials or who have been issued orders under the Provincial Animal Welfare Services Act.


Rhodes ran for mayor of Kitchener in 2014, but withdrew before voting day.
