"As consumers across Canada reel from reports that alleged serial killer Robert Pickton may have mixed the remains of women with pig flesh sold from his farm in British Columbia, PETA is reminding Canadians that a cadaver is a cadaver and that all living beings value their lives—no matter what their species."

It is absolutely unfathomable how this type of an explanation was the impetus behind placing such an image on billboards throughout Toronto and Edmonton.  Thank goodness that the city where the murders took place, Vancouver, had billboard firms reject the advertisements outright.

No matter what twisted logic PETA tries to espouse, human life can never be equated to that of an animal.  The members of PETA have so much compassion for barnyard animals, and yet have no consideration for the pain and suffering that the families of the murdered and missing women must experience everyday.

Then again, why would anyone expect anything better from an organization that has always shown little regard for women beyond being used as objects (refer to previous representations like this and this) to get their message across.

Now to head to Safeway...mmm, nothing says boycott like a big, juicy steak.
