Karen Wolverton, owner of the Robson Street LUSH store in Vancouver, stripped down and laid on a bleeding Canadian flag outside the Government St. store on March 26 to protest the approval of 280,000 seals to be killed during this year’s seal hunt. An online petition is available at Lush.ca.

    Seals are cute, but cows are not.

    The seal hunt is over legislated and relatively humane (go to an slaughterhouse and you'll see what humane is).

    Anti-seal hunt protests are racist and anti-inuit. It is disrespectable against Inuit culture.
