Read Full Petition
Over 300,000 baby seals will be clubbed or shot to death mercilessly during Canada's seal hunt this year; many will be skinned alive. The truth has become the first victim of this year's commercial seal hunt and the blow was struck by the Premier of Newfoundland. When speaking on CNN, Premier Danny Williams chose to make false statements about the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW), claiming to speak on behalf of Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
WHAT HE SAID: "IFAW representatives, veterinarians and other experts have said the seal hunt is humane."
FACT: There isn't a single reputable "expert" or "veterinary group" that has observed the seal hunt and called it humane.
The public deserves a commitment to honesty and respect for the real facts about how baby seals are being killed during this hunt. Please urge Canada's Prime Minister to tell the truth about what's happening on the ice!

surely there is way to find alternate economies (if in fact it is a viable industry at all)...should we continue a tradition simply for the fact that is a tradition when clearly we can see it is inhumane to do so? would the world have progressed at all had not people stood up to insist the injustices of the day must be recognized and our actions altered to alleviate the suffering of the innocent and those without voice? Please help us to stop the cruelty Your Honourable Prime Minister Harper
