I’m delighted to share some exciting news. Today, Canadian senator Mac Harb introduced a historic bill to end Canada’s commercial seal slaughter. Now that Russia—which had imported 95 percent of Canadian seal pelts—has joined the U.S., the E.U., Mexico, and others in banning seal fur, there are no markets for this fur. If passed, Harb’s bill would transition people in sealing regions into sustainable economic programs. Senator Harb’s bill comes on the heels of Sarah McLachlan’s recent appeal on PETA’s behalf to Prime Minister Harper urging him to end the slaughter and consider a government buyout of the sealing industry.

We are finally near ending the seal slaughter once and for all, but we need your help. Please take a few minutes and click here to urge Canadian senators to support Harb’s bill.

A victory is within reach, but it is not possible without your support. Please share this urgent alert with your friends and family on Facebook, and ask them to join you in speaking up for seals today.

Thank you for everything that you do to help animals.
