Let's get this out of the way. I am not a Peta member or an advocate of the spca. In fact I am their arch nemesis as I am a pest control professional.
Animal rights in Canada are vastly different from China save for perhaps the Inuit traditional Seal Hunt.
For example :
If we are to trap Pigeons in Calgary. We must visit the trap on a weekly basis, provide food, shelter and water for the bird in its last days. Well, providing a fresh source of water this time of year is a tad difficult and I have resorted to buying expensive solar powered birdbath heaters and heated dog water bowls to ensure that the Pigeons have fresh water before they are humanely euthanaised. All of this so that we can remove 20 birds from an HVAC unit that defecate their feces (which contains 41 potential diseases) into the air intake plenum.
I have walked every kill floor for Pork, Poultry and Beef in the province and never in my life have I seen something even remotely similar to conditions to that.
The image of the fox skinned alive blinking away and thrashing about with no skin has guaranteed that my wife will never receive a fur trimmed garment ever.
Truly deplorable and there is no need to support an industry like that to save 20 30% off retail costs. The same goes for most products that come out of China. we as North Americans turn our heads in the name of saving costs.

Gross.
Really?
Pretty fast and loose with the term "professional", by the way.
