In a vote at their annual meeting on the weekend P.E.I. veterinarians implemented a ban on the declawing of cats except in exceptional cases where it is medically required.

Dr. Gary Morgan, registrar of the P.E.I. Veterinary Medical Association, said veterinarians have been trying to counsel clients away from the surgery for some time, but the decision was made Saturday to put a stop to it.

lol. Canada is so far ahead now. I am happy to see it, but frustrated with how it's lagging here.  These are VETS making this decision for vets, it's so awesome.
