While Eileen Drever was an inspector at the Surrey SPCA, horses starved to death in clear view of the SPCA. From the Vancouver Sun, March 1992:

"Yet even though the Surrey branch of the SPCA was almost next door to the premises, SPCA inspectors said they could nothing about it. 'We have to have some concrete grounds to seize an animal and our Surrey branch didn't see anything we felt they could move on there', says the SPCA CEO Al Hickey. So the horses died."

The PCA Act defines as seizable, a lack of food, water, shelter, neglect, and suffering. The horses endured all that until they died, watched daily by the SPCA.

AAS was told that many people begged the Surrey SPCA to save the horses which could easily be seen from the SPCA's windows.

But even if the SPCA was telling the truth about the Act and its powers, anyone who claims to be an animal welfarist, as does the SPCA constantly, would have gone, out of uniform, and taken food to the horses.

Craig Daniell promoted Eileen Drever to the position of Senior Animal Protection Officer. And that is just one reason that we do not trust Craig Daniell or the BC SPCA.
