The College of Veterinarians of Ontario is the body charged by the Government of Ontario with regulating practising veterinarians in the province.[2][3][4] The authority comes from the Veterinarians Act, RSO 1990, c V.3.[2] It is also Ontario's only regulatory college to not be headquartered in Toronto: its head office is in Guelph, Ontario, the location of the Ontario Veterinary College which is the province's only post-secondary institution providing training in veterinary medicine.
