In a bold public relations move the Canadian Coast Guard illegally boarded and seized the Sea Shepherd ship the Farley Mowat in international waters and has arrested two Sea Shepherd members.

Sea Shepherd has been filming the brutal and economically senseless Seal hunt of eastern Canada. Apparently this is illegal without an "observation permit" which Canada will not grant to anyone because they don't want footage of the obscene and barbarously cruel slaughter reaching Europe which is considering a ban on all Seal products. This desperate act by the Canadian Coast Guard at the behest of the desperately small-dicked head of Canada's federal Fisheries Department--Minister Loyola Hearn. Since the seizure of the ship and the arrest of the crew happened in international waters and the Farley Mowat is a Dutch registered ship whose crew of 17 aboard the ship are from the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France, Sweden, South Africa, Canada, and the United States, it will be interesting to see how those countries react. Loyola Hearn has claimed that the crew was endangering Seal hunters just be their very presence. Really though, it is a shame that such a "progressive" country like Canada can practice forced and violent censorship in order to protect an industry that grosses less than $25 million dollars a year. The Canadian taxpayer has already paid more than that just to ensure that the Seal hunt went on this year. We wonder how much this pathetic naval action is going to cost the Canadian taxpayer. 10 million? More?

Price drop in high quality Seal pelts:

• 2006--$105 per pelt.
• 2007--$62 per pelt.
• 2008--$33 per pelt.

And lets not forget about how much more expensive it is to fuel these Seal boats this year.

Aparently Loyola Hearn has more brain damage than this clubbed Seal.

Dear European Commission:

For the love of all that is rational, please put the Sealers, the Seals, the Canadian taxpayer out of their collective misery and ban the sale of Seal products in the EU.
