We need people to testify this FRIDAY, Sept 9 at 9:30am in support of the ban - max 5 min each, especially those with personal experience or close connections to the cause. Contact Jennifer ASAP at mailto:finfree@unitedconservationists.org (P.S. Please forward this.).org" http://www.thestar.com/news/article/105061...rk-fin-ban?bn=1 " Toronto Councillor Glenn De Baeremaeker, who forwarded a motion to pursue a similar ban that’s now being considered, said Tuesday that municipalities do have the authority for such a ban. “It’s common sense that shark fins (which are cut off a shark that’s then thrown back into the ocean to die) can be banned.” City of Toronto staff has not issued a report on the proposed ban, but the licensing and standards committee is meeting Friday and will discuss how a bylaw could be enacted."
