The shame that is Canada in 60 seconds. – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRRu9SRIcXU
Ten years ago, sealers killed about 350,000 seals, but last year, that number dropped to 35,000—the lowest in 20 years.
Fewer than 1,000 sealers have participated in the slaughter in recent years.
Because of a lack of markets for seal products, the slaughter is costing Canada millions more to support than it earns, and seal fur processors admit that they are stockpiling pelts because they can’t sell them.
Still, tens of thousands of seals are expected to be killed in the coming weeks.
Canada’s new prime minister, Justin Trudeau, supports many progressive social issues, and now we’re urging him to extend his compassion further and begin a new era of kindness and financial responsibility by ending federal subsidies of the commercial seal slaughter.
Even if you have spoken up for seals before, please send a message to Prime Minister Trudeau.
Let him know that the power to stop this atrocity is in his hands …
… and that the world is ready for Canada to stop slaughtering baby seals!
The U.S., the European Union, and Russia have all already banned seal-fur imports.
