The fishermen are losing way more income because of this seal fur trade, because of countries boycotting their other seafood trade. So they can't logically be doing for the income. If they stop clubbing seals they will make way more money in seafood sales. I don't think Paul and his wife are out of touch with this issue at all. Most Canadians agree with doing away with the seal clubbing. (But I guess there are always going to be a large group of ignorant hunter types here who are probably in the NRA too, who think their testicles will falloff if these seals aren't murdered every spring.)

Join the civilized world and Boycott Baby Seal furs!!!!!!
