This has been one year since the investigation into the mass culling involving 100 sled dogs within Vancouver, British Columbia, (however that number has now been placed at 50) and nearly two years since the occasion itself took place. Today according to an article, this indicates unlikely that any kind of charges will be laid,
So let me understand this straight. Both "Outdoor Escapades Whistler", the sledding responsible for the particular dogs, and Bob Fawcett, the individual assumedly responsible for the killings (in the aftermath in the event Fawcett filed a PTSD claim), have claimed responsibility. Yet the Crown Counsel is still working on this "complicated file"?
Precisely what is so complicated? Your BC SPCA conducted a new $250 000 investigation, while using recommendation that the particular person responsible for the culling be charged. That has still not necessarily happened. Meanwhile, "Outdoor Escapades Whistler" continues to receive "healthy" bookings.
One outcome of the big event was stronger pet cruelty laws staying enacted in Bc, with punishments lifted from up to $10 000 and six months throughout jail to up to $75 000 and two a long time in jail with regard to serious offenders. Here's the problem, and We have said this ahead of in a previous post : you can raise the punitive measures all you want, but THESE Punitive measures MEAN ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IF THEY ARE NOT ENFORCED! If the courts are not going to continue on said punitive measures, the whole point is actually moot.
In the meantime animal abusers will continue to get away using literal and figurative murder, with only the warning of the slap on the hand and not, heaven forbid, an actual slap. **Update : your trial for the guy charged with the getting rid of in the Vancouver Dog Walkers case has begun.
