根据通过信息自由请求获得的文件,安大略省自2019年以来未能收取近900万美元被指控虐待动物的人员欠款. Ontario has failed to collect nearly $9 million in fees owed by alleged animal abusers since 2019, according to documents obtained through freedom-of-information requests. 省政府向所有者收取了超过1060万美元的费用, 但只回收约102万美元, 90%以上未付款. The province charged owners more than $10.6 million for caring for seized animals, but only recovered about $1.02 million, leaving over 90% unpaid. 批评者认为, 这种低收藏率会破坏执法制度, 并传达一种动物虐待几乎没有影响的信息. Critics argue the low collection rate undermines enforcement and sends a message that animal cruelty has little consequence.
