Who can figure the mind of a Toronto bureaucrat?
A quote from Michael Hackenberger, owner of Bowmanville Zoo, in response to Toronto City's charges in respect of bringing elephants downtown. Not the first time a resident of this city has asked that particular question.
Apparently if you are making a movie bringing animals downtown is fine, but not if you're trying to raise money to keep the zoo open. Fortunately, the pit-bull defender (the dog mind, not a description of the eminent counsel) Clayton Ruby is on the case and perhaps the nine ermined souls in Ottawa will yet hear of this - Ruby thinks this one is up there with the flying squirrel.
