It's my understanding that certainly there were. Back in the early eighties there were a number of sealers, as well as aboriginal people, who travelled to Europe and met with the European parliamentarians and things like that. I think it was to no avail.
If I recall, back in the days when Frank Moores was Premier of Newfoundland, he and Morrissey Johnson had a thing on the go where a bunch of them got together and they travelled to Europe to try to counteract the whitecoat ban at that time, I guess. And really, you know, they ended up probably doing more damage than they did good, because they were not professionals; they were not media people, I suppose, in one way of speaking.
These protest people use the media free of charge. They are professional media people.
