Caught again! Chortyk denied there had been a complaint to the SPCA about Parent
In Response To: Cat lady's supporters foil SPCA inspection *LINK* ()

"Spokesperson Lorie Chortyk says the woman was known to them as someone running an independent animal rescue and while they had concerns about what Chortyk says was a clear case of animal hoarding, there had been no formal complaints lodged against her."

Word is that Chortyk is denying calling Bev Parent a "hoarder" as quoted on CKNW news on Wednesday (as if CKNW just made that up!).

Now she'll have to deny that she ever said that the SPCA had never had a complaint about Parent.

If CKNW didn't have serious doubts about the SPCA's credibility before, it certainly will have them now.

Chortyk is supposed to protect and improve the SPCA's image, but she repeatedly does it more harm than any other SPCA employee. Yet the CEO keeps her. Sadly or comically, depending on your mood, the CEO vies with Ms Chortyk for self-inflicted P.R. damage to the SPCA.

Why tarnish a dying woman's name with this "hoarding" label?
Lorie Chortyk, the SPCA's "P.R. person", is a liability to the SPCA's attempts to improve its image
The SPCA is ethically bereft and we cannot see that that will change

So which is it Ms. Chortyk, is Ms. Parent a "hoarder" or is she a caring and compassionate woman who devoted her life to those who many view as throw away trash?
I would sure like to see a very public retraction and apology by Ms. Chortyk

Why should we care about spaying and neutering when the SPCA will take any and all animals?
