Ban goes too far

Mark Gerber

Dear editor:
Re: “Ban urged on dogs riding in backs of pickups.”
When we go to the field to pick up potatoes, etc., we often have a load of young helpers plus our dog along on the back of our truck.
I’m not sure which of the two enjoys the ride more, but I’m quite sure our dog is just as happy as the children.
I know, we live in the country but since we do “belong” also to Fort Frances in many ways, I feel it [the ban] may sooner or later also affect us here.
Rather, let’s be very careful, or in some cases perhaps have the animal tied up when doing it.
Yours truly,
Mark Gerber, R.R. 1,
