Their "jobs" are to catch fish. They club baby seals in their off season. It doesn't even make up a tiny percentage of their annual income. Last year we started boycotting Canadian fish until they stop this practice. It has actually decreased the import significantly. If we continue it can only further the cause and show that we mean business.

I have talked a few people out of buying Canadian fish at the fish counter by telling them about the boycott.

Last year (like previous years) the Human Society monitored the slaughter. The fishermen actually tried to ram their little boats in that cold water. These fishermen are real brave aren't they? Picking on baby animals and little dingies with their great big fishing boats.

I don't want to offend any of our Canadian members and hope that they realize that this is about the fishermen and practice of clubbing baby seals. It isn't about the country or citizens. I love Canada and have visited many times.

Thanks for reading this far.
