It's true. The seal slaughter is happening right now in Canada with an early start in March. It goes on for weeks, and the quota this year is 300,000. Please help Canada to stop this horror, because the majority of us DO NOT support it.

Simply any killing of animals for fur is absolutely pathetic. So why discuss...

PS: Lobby the Canadian Goverment in the WTO is totally unnecessary and very arrogant, because we Europeans are very pleased that our governments have prohibited the trade in seal products.

How can some people look at that face and say to themselves "I'm going to bash this cute and defensless seals head in just because some rich bitch can parade around wearing its coat just to make up for beauty that they would obviously lack on the inside and out. At least there are some people out there that are trying to stop this cruelty. To all people who kill them for a living GET A REAL JOB YOU SICK FREAKS!

Stereotypes,insults! is this the best you have to offer ? is this your version of an intelligent discussion? I do have a job that pays all year long & pay in plenty of taxes,so this misconception that you have of us is totally false, also Per capita Newfoundland is one of the most heavily taxed provinces in Canada, so all this ignorance that you are spewing is the left over vomit from others like yourself such as the ARA's propagandistic speeches,videos,etc..& yes i will have a nice day! u2 lol

Bravo...What was your name Bono Vox??? I highly doubt that Sir. get a real job that pays all year round and does not SCAVENGE on the Real CANADIAN Taxpayers like myself!!!! Now I think I am the one LMAO..Have a Nice Day ;)

& as for the EU' s decision to totally ban seal products goes to show that they are not professional or even responsible enough to even be making decisions that can affect peoples lively hoods because they were brainwashed by the animal rights activists propaganda instead of basing it on some good old fashion irrefutable science, You might as well go over & join them with that type of irrational thinking. lmao!

[harpsealer]

Why would i have too? Because of someone that is so misinformed/brainwashed about something that happens all around the world,{The harvesting of animals that is},Whether it is strictly for fur & or meat,It is as humane as or more than the killing of the majority of animals selected for harvesting,& To think that someone can sit down & watch a few videos here on you tube & consider themselves educated on such activities & then tell someone to change their whole life because they say "its wrong".

[platinumshark1963]
