JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT!

"Winter Soldiers, according to founding father Thomas Paine, are those who stand up for the soul of their country, even in its darkest hours. With this spirit in mind, IVAW members are standing up to make their experiences available to all who are concerned about the direction of our country."

The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us, the less taste we shall have for destruction.- Rachel Carson

The Canadian Seal Hunt
Is Cruel And Puts The Harp Seal
Species At Risk

GEAR UP to Protect Seals

Most people think that the slaughter
of baby seals in Canada is over.
It is not. In fact it is worse than ever.

In the last four years the Canadian
Government has allowed over one and
a quarter million baby seals to be brutally
slaughtered by clubbing and shooting,
with the majority of seals killed aged three months or younger.
An independent veterinary study concluded that
42% of seals may have been skinned while still conscious.

The Canadian Government not only defends
but also promotes this cruelty.
The Harper Goverment is greedy and this
is despicable and unacceptable way for them
to permit fisherman to earn a living, by killing babies.

This is the largest most brutal
slaughter of marine mammals
on the planet and brings shame upon
the Canadian Government.

Please urge -


The Canadian Prime Minister and Canadian Ambassador

Take Action to End the Seal Hunt


We have the key, come and unlock your mind,
learn what you can do to help stop
the slaughter of baby seals.
