Another Day, Another Bloody Slaughter in Canada

Posted on April 9, 2009 by nothoney

I just finished reading the latest post by Humane Society International’s Rebecca Aldworth about the Canadian seal slaughter. There’s no way I could witness the bludgeoning of a helpless baby seal, whose pelt is now worth only $15, the way Aldworth has for the last 11 years. I admire her greatly for taking her camera [...]

Seal Killers Return; HSUS Documents Unspeakable Cruelty

Posted on April 4, 2009 by nothoney

I do not shop at stores that don’t participate in the Canadian seafood boycott, and I don’t eat at restaurants that serve seafood. I will not visit Canada, nor buy one damn [...]

The Canadian Way: Turn Your Back and Don’t Look

Posted on March 22, 2009 by Kestrel

“One might as well argue that because Canada used to hang convicted murderers by the neck until they were dead the tradition should not be allowed to disappear. Sealing in Canada is not a tradition, it is just an unenlightened, outdated practice.” — J.M. Coetzee, Interview from March 2008 On the eve of the Canadian [...]

Canadian Seal Slaughter Starts Tomorrow

Posted on March 21, 2009 by nothoney

I want to stop blogging about the annual, government-subsidized Canadian slaughter of baby harp seals. I want it to be over – forever. I want the Canadian government and the people of Newfoundland to wake up and smell the blood sport and put an end to the brutality. Wayne Pacelle of HSUS and Captain Paul [...]
