Figure this out - and then figure out how groups like the Humane Society and the likes of Rebecca Aldworth get away with it.
Read the following about joining a boycott to protest our Seal Harvest:
Marie Weir, general manager of Cy's Crab House in Buffalo Grove, which has also joined the boycott, said costs may be slightly higher to buy fish from elsewhere in the world, but the options are out there.
Even the famous Canadian snow crabs can be replaced with those from Russia and Alaska, she said.
"I think it's a good thing to do to help out," Weir said of the boycott. "Everybody in the world thinks they can do anything they want, and then when the world falls apart, it's never their fault. Look at global warming."
This snippet was taken from a story in the Daily Herald in Illinois.
This individual and company is going to buy seafood from other countries despite the price - despite our Canada - USA "connection" because the Humane Society told them the seal hunt was cruel.
This is out of America - suffering through tens of millions of recalled toys - toothpaste - tires - and medical devices/medications from China - yet no boycott of Chinese products - in fact the great American corporate elite flocks to Asia to get dirt cheap labour - in countries with no labour standards or human rights. Their precious stock markets filled with corporations paying children slave wages and working them endless hours - so they can deliver to America - tainted - unsafe - and some cases deadly products. China gets the Olympics and American investment - we get a kick in the guts because we harvest - humanely and sustainably - seal.
That - people - is the definition of stupidity - and probably why an NFL superstar can illegally fight and kill dogs - while "fans" try to forgive him.
That is why the slaughter houses in the United States are not open for unscheduled visits by animal activists - unlike the seal harvest in Canada which is prosecuted in the open on ice flows and waters of the North Atlantic.
