New ban on Exotics in Canada???

NATCON PETITION - Petitions24.com

A friend of mine posted this up on my FB page and then called and told me the Canadian government is looking at banning the keeping and breeding of all exotic species, both mammal and reptile.

I took a look and cannot even figure out where this "petition" was generated from, let alone how it relates to either the USA or Canada.

I googled with every key-word I could think of, and have not come up with anything except that the federal government is talking about whether exotics should be controlled at a federal level. (right now in Canada it is done at the provincial level) This is apparently coming up because of what happened with the African Rock Python incident in New Brunswick.

I would appreciate having a good, informed discussion on this matter. So if anyone knows about any new bans or restrictions being put on the table pertaining to our hobby, I would love to hear about it and discuss it.
