Stop the killing of seals in Canada
Target: Hon. Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada; Minister of Fisheries and OceansSponsored by: Erika Ceballos
Baby Seals Need Your Help!
This year, by late March, the Canadian seal killers armed with clubs and rifles will go again to the nursery floes of the harp and hood seal, to massacre them in the largest mass slaughter of marine mammals on this planet!
In 2003 alone, 350,000 seals where killed in this brutal way and this year and in 2005, each year they will kill 350,000 more to make a total of over a MILLION seals killed within 3 years.
Please sign this petition and send it to everyone who cares for the animals in the world to stop this extremely cruel slaughter of innocent seals in Canada.

Je trouve déplorable la chasse aux phoques, non seulement la chasse aux blanchons mais aussi celle des adultes. Certains scientifiques argumentes en disant qu'il y en a trop et que l'équilibre naturel est déstabilisé mais, le dénombrement se fait depuis seulement quelques décennies. Combien y en avait-il avant, il y a cent ou deux cents ans ? Cette chasse ridicule est un prétexte pour faire rouler l'économie local mais plutôt que de s'acharner à tuer innocement des bêtes pourquoi ne diversifient-ils pas leur économie ?

I don't understand how can somebody kill an animal in that way, if that murderer is not a real sick.

Innocent Seals are being slaughtered to pay for the sins of the Canadian government in it's mismanagement of the fisheries. Shame.

It takes a weak person to only harm something or somone smaller then themselves to make them feel big. Shame on you all.

Je suis immensément dégoûtée devant tant de cruauté. Les phoques ont davantage besoin de compassion que ceux qui gagnent du sale fric à leur dépens. Honte à tous les exploiteurs d'animaux, tous criminels sans même se l'avouer...

Hi, I was so naive to believe that humans had learned that the animals are our children and our responsibility. How wrong I was - ans I am so sad.

The seal hunt is extremely cruel and intolerable in any kind of an evolved society. Seals are feeling, conscious beings that have every bit as much right to autonomy as the humans who slaughter them.

The seal hunt is only a small part of a much larger animal holocaust, where millions suffer and die every year. Every effort should be made to create legislation that protects all life, irregardless of size and intelligence. All species of animal (including people)and plant life should be protected under the same legislation.
