The Charter of Rights and Freedoms has been used to defend a lot of really questionable so-called causes, but a new low has to be the Charter Challenge by Ontario dog owners saying the proposed ban on pit bulls violates their rights. Who has a state supported right to own a dog? And who has the right to own a state supported potential killing machine? I don't think a breed-specific ban is the answer to vicious dog attacks, but a challenge to the Charter is just another example of greedy lawyers who will take any dubious case.
