Crab cruelty
Letter
Published: Sunday, August 20, 2006
How could an agency like the Prince Rupert SPCA, supposedly concerned with animal cruelty and welfare, consider holding such a scandalous event as a crab boil?
Now that the public is outraged, the SPCA has decided to back down. But the damage has been done, and I'm left with a sick feeling that, if they could have got away with it, they would have.
The SPCA has once again given me reason to continue supporting such organizations as the Sea Shepherd Society and Animal Advocates, who truly fight to give a voice to the voiceless.
