Two Toronto lawyers have been appointed to the new Animal Care Review Board.
They are Stephanie Kepman and Melody Maleki-Yazdi.
The board was set up to handle appeals from enforcement activities by 100 new inspectors who report to the Solicitor-General of Ontario on new animal care legislation.
The Solicitor-General became responsible after the Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Animals stopped farm inspections last year.
The chairman of the board is Katie Osborne, also a Toronto lawyer.
So how come nobody from Farm and Food Care Ontario has been appointed? Maybe no farmers have volunteered.
