Like I said earlier, it's high time that Canada challenged the MMPA, and it should do it with science. The first step is to make the seal hunt much more accessible than it is right now, keeping the regulations needed to do it properly but making it much easier for hunters. Initiatives like seal bait and shellfish harvesting should be greatly encouraged. We need to take steps very quickly if we want to preserve the fisheries in the Maritimes.
