Seal parka's are awesome,same with the mitts and boots.
I told the boys up north if they could ship me the finished product I could sell them as fast as they arrived.I could have sold my mitts a hundred times over this winter,people see them and they want a pair.

Sandorski, just because the EU banned it doesn't mean it's over. The EU doesn't represent the entire worlds trade. As far as I am concerned the seat hunt is like any other fur hunt (which the EU does as well). So let the EU sell there hypocrite EU furs from there hypocrite EU fur trade and let the Canadian fur industry sell theres someplace else. Perhaps down south? I am sure that would piss PETA off a whole bunch having what would have been the EU trade have all that trade go down to where there HQ is at.

It will just grow. Better to beat them to it.

It does mean a significant market is drying up and devaluing the price of pelts to the point where it’s not worth going out to hunt.
This is one of the most cock-eyed fights I’ve ever seen. Europe doesn’t want the product. Fine!
Can’t make ‘em buy what they don’t want no matter the reason.
Our parliament unanimously (idiots – all of ‘em) “suggests” putting seal fur on our athlete’s uniforms.
The IOC (who normally can’t do anything moral) says we can’t because it’s against the rules to use your athletes as political pawns. Holy Christ! These guys have the high ground?
Face it. The hunt has been unpopular for more than the sixty years I’ve been alive. It’s dying and maybe it’s about time.

Actually they do want the product. It's the politicians that don't want them to have it.

Well then I guess we'll have to wait until "they" elect new politicians that will let them have it.

What is amazing is that you'd have them continue on until no one buys their Product anymore. It's time to move away from it, it is a dead end.
If they don't want it, why are they still being bought?
Guess you'd rather that the seal population explode, kill all the fish and fuck over another industry, and then they all get to die slowly and painfully rather than quick and painless. Yeah way better plan.
