Agreed!, but two wrongs don't make a right you know.  You've NO excuses, =

  Maybe you can try to get your Prime Minister to follow international =
law and not go around invading other countries that are of no threat.

with dictators like Ghadaffi.
  Then maybe you can complain about our country.

The objection arises because of the cruelty, which is an obvious

'In 2001 UK tourists spent the equivalent of 1.026 billion Canadian
dollars - this is a massive source of income to Canada. Whereas the
seal hunt, by contrast, is a volatile industry and although accurate
figures are hard to come by it is estimated to be worth approximately
only Can $6 million.

The hunt is actually heavily subsidised by the Canadian Government
and when the subsidies are taken into account it is worth closer to just
Can $3 million. '

- Boycott is a predictable enough reaction.

Observe http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/236982184 ,
and see the impact this is having on your country.  People love
seals- they are regarded as inquisitive, friendly and intelligent
creatures. I'm sure you could earn a little extra cash welcoming
eco-friendly tourism in the area.  - Just think- you are actually
slaughtering one of your area's best tourist $$$s earner assets!
