Today we protested the commercial seal slaughter, which began on April 9th, 2018 in Toronto Ontario.

According to Canada’s Shame, these are the top 8 most important things that you need to know about the seal slaughter: sealers do kill babies, PETA is targeting the commercial seal slaughter, not the Inuit hunt, seal “products” from the commercial slaughter have been banned in 36 countries because of cruelty, seals aren’t “eating all the fish“, the slaughter methods are not humane, fishers don’t rely on the commercial seal slaughter as their primary source of income, most Canadians oppose the seal slaughter, the Canadian government spends millions in taxpayer money every year to keep the seal slaughter going. The Toronto Sun Reports: “We just want people to know during tax season that the Canadian government is spending millions of dollars on the seal slaughter; it costs us more than it’s bringing in, and it’s time to end it once and for all,” said PETA campaigner Emily Lavender.
