On the EU seal ban.

I think this is an issue Canada feels quite chippy about.  You got to give Mr. Harper the credit, he really does have a finger on the pulse of the nation.
Canadians even out here in the west stand with our Newfoundland brothers.

From an ecological point of view, huge escalations in seal populations cannot help but ravage the fragile cod stocks.  Atlantic Canadians understand this.  Proactive management is a must given the fact that already human overfishing has done so much damage already.  To passively "leave it to mother nature" is an abandonment of humanity's vital stewardship of the earth.

The EU needs to understand this.  When they do, the will likely listen to us.
