Urge the Olympic Committee to Help End the Canadian Seal Slaughter.
All eyes are on Canada as it prepares to host the 2010 Winter Olympics. This
extra attention will bring increased scrutiny and comes with the added
responsibility of setting a positive example for the world. That's why we are
calling on the Vancouver Olympic Organizing Committee to help stop the
Canadian seal slaughter.
During Canada's annual war on seals, hundreds of thousands of seals are killed
for their skin in the most horrific ways imaginable. Seals stand no chance
against club-wielding trappers who are after their fur, and they must look on
as fellow pups are bludgeoned to death before meeting the same bloody fate.
These seals, many of whom are only weeks old when they're barbarically
killed, have their skulls smashed in or are shot point-blank by hunters who are
driven by profit and greed. The anguish that a mother seal feels as she
watches her baby being beaten to death just a few feet away from her is
horrifying and can be heard in her desperate cries and seen in her attempts to
get to her baby.
Last year, more than 205,000 individual seals were killed during the massacre,
which is nothing more than a money-making scheme orchestrated by
professional fishers, and Canada will soon begin its annual merciless attack on
seals for their fur. We need you to speak up for seals now and demand a
permanent end to the cruel seal slaughter.

| Please write to the Vancouver Olympic Organizing Committee and demand that they help bring an immediate end to the seal slaughter. Send this message to: Governor General Michaelle Jean: info@gg.ca Mayor Gregor Robertson: gregor.robertson@vancouver.ca Mr. John Furlong: Info@vancouver2010.com Mr. Michael Chambers: Info@vancouver2010.com Prime Minister Stephen Harper: pm@pm.gc.ca Subject: Help End the Annual Seal Slaughter Dear [ Decision Maker ], I was shocked to learn that Canada slaughters hundreds of thousands of innocent seals for their fur every year. These animals, often babies who are just weeks old, have their skulls smashed in or are shot. Then they are skinned for their fur - often while they are still conscious. All eyes are on Canada as it prepares to host the 2010 Winter Olympics. Please help end the seal slaughter immediately so that the reputation of the Vancouver Olympic Games won't be tarnished. Sincerely, [Your name] |
