Increasing use of the threat of defamation by the BC SPCA

The "defamation" threat seems to be growing in popularity at the BC SPCA. If it doesn't like the truth, it tries to silence it with the fear of its power and millions. It has the stable of lawyers only too happy to spend animals' money threatening, or actually suing, people who have the temerity to speak out for animals.

This threat is in the same league as the threat the SPCA's "Animal Protection Officers" use on people who have had their animals seized by the SPCA. Pay us what we demand in 14 days or we will "dispose" of your pets or your livestock. Disposal mean the SPCA can kill or sell your animals and the SPCA has made that clear to people who are not sure what disposal means. We don't know how often this happens but we know it happened again just two weeks ago.
