Dear Minister Eby,
thas been nearly a year since an undercover investigation by animal advocates revealed
horrific abuse of poultry, allegedly involving staff at Elite Farm Services Ltd. in Chilliwack. The
case attracted national media attention and widespread public revulsion over the reported
cruelty inflicted on multiple birds.
‘The BC SPCA prepared a report to Crown Counsel, recommending animal cruelty charges. To
date, no charges have been announced. We are concerned at this undue delay and any
potential impact it might have on a successful prosecution proceeding.
There would no doubt be considerable public outrage if the alleged perpetrators of these
extreme acts of cruelty were not brought to justice.
hope you will consider these concerns and take whatever action is necessary to expedite
‘Crown Counsel’s work on this case.
J look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
‘ (a
Sabra Vhobut.
