"Rats are wonderful pets!!!! To ban them is ridiculous"
"Yes, I agree. I live in Alberta, and I would have bought a pet rat when my hamster died, but then I found out they were illegal. It's not like I'm going to release it or anything!"
"pet rats pose no threat to farmland...how ridiculous"
"Shame!"
"I think it is sad that you are trying to ban rats.......they were here long before we were!"
"intend to develop a large rodent breeding facility, Rats will be 90% of product, I may have to leave the province."
"Rats have been kept as pets for over a 100 years and do therefor no longer know how to survive in the wild. A released rat would only survive a few days so the pet rats are clearly not the rats that are doing the damage. Your ban is therefor highly illogi"
"Rats are adorable!!"
"i love my rats, and couldn't imagine being without them!"
"this is simply ridiculous, rats are the best small pet you can own, there is no need to ban something which is totally opinionated and not physically wrong."
"I think this is rediculous, waste of time and money, rats are clean and smart just like cats."
"I think it is important to see and make a difference between wild rats and pet-rats. What is the use of destroying pet-rats, they really don't do anyone harm. The only result is many devistated owners..."
"i can't believe fellow canadians would consider banning such a wonderful pet"
"The governement would be better advised to put more resources into education the public on animal care issues rather than continually attempting ridiculous bans which end up only affecting those that are responsable pet owners anyway."
