Subject: I like some of what your seal hunt campaign is doing
Susan,
A friend of mine forwarded an email you sent asking someone
to stop buying Canadian Seafood to stop the seal hunt. I for one
am all for the seal hunt. They have great skins that are very
useful and beautifull.
A friend of mine forwarded your email for me to respond
to. I would be happy to contribute my opinion. Nothing personal,
but first of all, may I ask you whether you are bald, and if
not, whether you hair is blonde, in which case may I have your
scalp? I just loooove blondes.
I love nature
I love nature too, and seals are a part of nature. But I
think we have different definitions of "love". When I love
something, I want to protect it. Apparently, when you love
something, you want to kill it.
To be generous, I'll say that you don't really want to
kill it. You just want to rob it of its beauty to enhance your
own image with a fur coat. And, yeah, well, if it can't live
without its skin, too bad, eh?
You may as well take its penis too while you're at it,
since your "wise use" would require you to use everything.
and think we should utilize and enjoy its beauty, while
responsibly managing the resource.
Lots of nice words here, but from somebody like you, they
mean "and think we should rape it, while leaving a few to
rape next year".
From what I have learned, the Canadian seal hunters have been
doing this for a long time and there are still lots of seals, so
I think they are doing fine and should be allowed to continue
their artesenal hunting practices without interference from
outsiders.
From what I have learned, the seals have never been mass
slaughtered before the seal hunters arrived from Europe and
became Canadian. Up to that time, both the cod and the seals
were doing just fine, thank you very much.
Also, "a long time" does not include now. Now is a new era
- of global warming. Your rules no longer apply.
Speaking of global warming, it is estimated that some
250,000 baby seals have drowned in the Southern Gulf of St.
Lawrence, and Canada still uncharitably adds 270,000 to the
tally, adding up to 520,000 in total seal fatality, and this is
assuming that there is no overkill as oft-repeated in pervious
years. Some "responsible management", if you ask me.
By the way, I am not an "outsider". I am as Canadian as
you.
Another thought is why penalize Canadian fishermen? What do they
have to do with seal hunting?
Another thought is why penalize the seals? What do they
have to do with fishermen decimating the cod stock by
overfishing resulting from irresponsible management?
You want to take away their livlihood...
You want to take away their lives...
when they have no imnpact on seal hunters thousands of miles
away. Wow, you are really reaching for straws and being rather
irresponsible in the proocess. Why not boycott all Canadian
goods if you want to pressure the gevernment?
Thank you for the great idea. Finally we agree on
something. I will ask the "outsiders" everywhere to boycott all
Canadian goods then. Thanks again!
Is that because you believe everything you read from sources
you trust. I like to learn both sides of a story before forming
my opinions, and I have in this case. I think you are
irresponisble and nosing into others affairs that don't concern
you.
Something so hideous and uncivilized concerns everyone on
Earth and even Martians. Natural law says that the seals do not
belong to Canada. If Canada wants to claim something, it should
be the responsibility to safeguard them, not to skin them alive,
and to profit from their penises. Shame on Canada for such
obscenity and, yes, irresponsibility (since you like this word
so much).
I said I like people like you, becasue as you note the price
of crab is down and if you want to take credit for that, great,
and thanks. Crab is delicious.
Good news that the price of crab is down. But obviously we
have different reasons. I hope you will get a very delicious
indigestion.
By the way, I am glad you are doing thinsgs that make you
sleep better at night, but rest assured the seals and the world
doesn't need you to save it.
I disagree. I will ask Sue to continue helping us
patriotic Canadians to clean up our reputation, since we can't
do it ourselves without their support.
