DESCRIPTION:"The clubbing of baby seals can't be defended or justified, and Canada 
 should end it just as we ended the Alaska baby seal massacre 20 years ago," 
 said Senator Levin in his remarks to the Senate.  In late March the ice 
 floes off Newfoundland and Labrador in Canada will once again run red with 
 the blood of hundreds of thousands of harp seals, some as young as 12 days 
 old. Canada's annual seal slaughter is the largest commercial hunt of 
 marine mammals anywhere in the world—and the rest of the world is taking 
 notice.  On March 15, The HSUS and our Protect Seals Network partners will 
 hold the first International Day of Action Against the Canadian Seal Hunt. 
 Participating groups will announce a boycott of Canadian seafood—to be 
 launched once the first seal is clubbed or shot to death on the ice this 
 year. More than 40 demonstrations are planned at Canadian embassies and 
 consulates around the world. Please make your plans to attend an event near 
 you   The U.S. Senate introduced a resolution, S. Res. 33, on February 1 
 urging the Canadian government to call off the hunt. Senator Carl Levin 
 (D-MI), the lead sponsor, noted that polls reflect 71 percent of Canadians 
 believe the seal hunt should be banned outright, or limited to seals over 
 one year of age.   and add your voice. \n
