Correction: I did not give the correct information about how long DB has been CEO of the BCSPCA. After reading AAS article it would appear he came to throne after Al Hickey retired -meaning he has had five years to understand the his mandate and the PCA Act!...
Interesting that AAS has also found a little slipup or avoidance of facts when they asked a simply question with the newly installed Brimacombe - asking him if he was in correspondence with the Ministry of Agriculture concerning the act. Ummm, best to double check the facts coming from DB in the future me thinks.
"...Shortly after, Hickey retired, so we phoned Douglas Brimacombe, the new CEO of the BC SPCA, again anonymously, and he said exactly the same thing. And he added, when we asked him if the SPCA was trying to make the laws adequate, that Yes, they were working with the provincial government to improve the laws. We then wrote the Agriculture Ministry to ask if they were currently working with the BC SPCA to improve the PCA Act. No, is the answer we got. "

TRUST and HONESTY are very important words in my vocabulary!
