SPCA ADVOCATES THE EATING OF ANIMALS TO RAISE FUNDS FOR ANIMAL WELFARE
We, the undersigned, join the Canadian Voice For Animals, and its co-sponsors in condemning the BC- SPCA and its branches for blatantly condoning the eating of other animals to raise money to help save dogs and cats and all cuddly animals. We demand that all fundraising events that have animal products on the menu be stopped once an for all.
Like all who love animals, it is difficult to understand what part of the words Cruelty To Animals that the SPCA doesn’t understand.
While we’ve had confirmation that the Prince Rupert Branch cancelled the crab boil slated for August 27 th because of bad public relations, they still have plans for several up and coming fundraising events.
THIS PETITION WILL STAY ON LINE UNTIL THE BC-SPCA REVISES ITS CONSTITUTION SO THAT IT PROTECTS ALL ANIMALS.
The following is a list of scheduled events, some with telephone numbers that you can call to advise them of your displeasure.
