A Seal Hunt on the West Coast?

When we were first alerted to the talk about a possible seal hunt in British Columbia, we didn’t waste anytime starting our research and mounting opposition. In November 2018 the Animal Protection Party of Canada posted an article about this issue, which you can read by clicking here.

One action you can take is to email the Honourable MP Jonathan Wilkinson Minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard. His email is: Jonathan.Wilkinson@parl.gc.ca

Be respectful in your correspondence and request that no permit be given to support the efforts of the Pacific Balance Pinniped Society (PBPS) for a seal quota.  Instead, the government should focus on reducing the impacts of human activity, which are the main contributors to the decline of the Southern Resident Killer Whales.

Join us and add your voice, for the animals.
