Just received this email for those in the UK who want to do something to help the Canadian Seal Cull.
There are 2 marches this week, details are as follows:
Seal slaughter demos - London
Demos, demos, demos!
Weds 19th April @ 12.00 - Canada House, Trafalgar Square
Fri 21st April @ 12.00 - Canadian High Commission, Grosvenor Square
Let's ensure that the Canadian government is left in no doubt about the strength of feeling against this sickening slaughter.
Let's ensure that the public are kept fully aware of what is happening.
Be there for the seal pups!
6 a.m. on 12th April: the killers of Canada descended upon the seal pups on the Front, in the second and largest phase of this massacre. 200 large vessels, carrying the seal killers, were expected to kill 120,000 defenceless baby seals (5 pups every 2 seconds!!), in a killing frenzy, which was to last until 7 p.m. During this part of the slaughter, most seal pups are shot. Even the Canadian government have stated, that around 10,000 pups will be 'struck and lost', a euphemistic term for baby seals being wounded and slowly bleeding to death in the ocean. In reality, many more will suffer this agonising death. Another 115,000 are due to be slaughtered, over the next few days.
13th April: The Humane Society of the United States and the Franz Weber Foundation seal hunt observation team, along with a member of the European Parliament and several independent journalists, are currently under threat of physical violence and have taken refuge in their rooms at the Four Seasons Inn, Blanc Sablon, Quebec. A growing mob estimated at nearly 60 people has gathered outside the hotel and is refusing to let the team leave. Earlier this morning, while attempting to drive to their helicopters, a car containing team members and four journalists was run off the road into a ditch.
The seal killers are desperate for this year's slaughter not to be observed or documented. These violent psychopaths assaulted Dr Jerry Vlasak and 10 others during last year's slaughter. This year, they have rammed inflatable vessels belonging to the HSUS and now a baying mob has imprisoned peaceful observers in their hotel room. Canada is now sinking even further, into a cesspit of inhumanity and injustice, which is more akin to the Wild West, rather than a supposed civilised and forward-thinking nation.
