One of the biggest misconceptions of how big the seal hunt protest really is can be found in the very place the hunt takes place, Canada. In 2009, seal protests took place all over this country. In Vancouver, the third biggest city in Canada, 70 seal hunt protesters turned out. In Edmonton, no seal hunt protesters. They just hung a banner on a bridge. In Calgary, 40 seal hunt protesters. Ottawa got all way up to 100 protesters.
Canada has a population of over 33 million people. The seal hunt takes place on the east coast of Canada and there are very few people in this country that protest the seal hunt. What the seal protest groups try and tell you is that whole country is rising up in protest. Well...that's just more of their crap.
While the seal hunt protest industry is using one hand to hold up their signs, the second hand is coming around your back reaching for your wallet. Animal rights groups use exploitation of perceived animal cruelty as a means to make vast amounts of money. And big money there is. Figures show that the seal hunt protest groups earn over 100 million dollars a year. Yes folks, I said 100 million.
So if there is anyone reading this that want to make the big bucks...seal hunt protesting is the way to go.
