  2. The Ontario SPCA was selected by the Central Region Conference delegates for the development of the High Volume Spey/Neutre program which has lowered the admission of Cats to area shelters.
  3. The City of Toronto, Animal Services was nominated by the Central Region Conference delegates for the development of the Chip Truck which demonstrated pet owners are sensitive to value added licensing.
The Summit for Community Compliance recognizes efforts to increase the overall level of compliance in a community from the development of best practices or codes of ethical conduct in the area of licensing, identification, spay/neuter, wellness, recreation, breeding or standards of care.
