Sample Message:
“Dear Minister Alexis,
I am writing to express concern over the failure of the BCSPCA to properly enforce against criminal animal cruelty within agriculture. The BCSPCA has been shown to be unreliable and ineffective at holding factory farms accountable for their abuse of animals. Disclosure of Freedom of Information documents affirms these concerns, revealing that the BCSPCA CEO Craig Daniell, wrote to the Deputy Ministry of Agriculture, stating that the private charity has “no capacity to enforcement animal cruelty at factory farms in BC.” The time has come to replace the BCSPCA with a government enforcement agency that is independent from industry and responsive to the public.
Additionally, in an effort for transparency, I am also requesting that the Ministry implement mandatory CCTV cameras inside all animal farms, hatcheries and slaughterhouses, to ensure every practice is clearly documented and made accessible to the public. Please consider these serious concerns and make the necessary changes.”
