today's primitive political ownership of the Oceans is obsolete.
seals are not fish.
the Canadian government is as dysfunctional as were the dukes and barons of the 18th century.

Therefore, human life also decreases in value.

If we are truly human beings
having advanced intelligence
and capable of compassion,
we should abhor the brutal killing of these marine mammals that are being treated as mere objects for
the fur market !
