Customer Reviews
Thoughtful, nuanced information
I’ve really enjoyed listening to these episodes. I always learn something new and end up checking in on some outdated assumptions I’ve been holding on to. It’s a great peek behind the curtain of animal welfare and legislation in B.C. and Canada. Important for any animal lover to give a listen.
