What does Mr Daniell mean by 'so-called “no-kill” facilities'?

Secondly, what does Mr Daniell mean by 'so-called “no-kill” facilities'?

Why "so-called"? The implication is that 'facilities' calling themselves no-kill aren't really no-kill. What does Mr Daniell mean by 'facilities'? The word encompasses both pounds and animal shelters. The SPCA itself has pounds. So is Mr Daniell taking a jab at other pounds that have reimaged themselves as no-kill shelters? But 'facilities' also can also mean real animal shelters, some of which stated clearly in posts below what their criteria for euthanasia are, and that their only method of euthanasia is humane injection. (What methods, by the way, are on the SPCA's approved methods of destruction of animals, another list we haven't been able to find on the SPCA's website?)
