PETA has launched a spoof site for the Vancouver Olympic Games over seal hunting. I hate the seal slaughter. I like Canada. I'm an American, but I grew up seeing Noltan Nash, the Beachcombers and Hockey Night in Canada on the TV. Seal hunting is just plain wrong. Here is a link to the site.

Kudos for Russian leader Vladimir Putin for stopping the slaughter of seals. Maybe Canada can learn something from the former KGB agent and avid hunter about compassion. Conservation groups have staged protests in 20 Russian cities this week, demanding an end to the slaughter.

A judge has found five animal-rights activists not guilty of getting too close to seal hunters during the 2006 hunt off Canada's east coast. The five were charged with coming within 10 metres of seal hunters on March 26, 2006 while filming the annual slaughter in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, not far from Cape Breton.

Both groups will be protesting the seal hunt using the Olympic torch ceremony as the backdrop. Crowds gathering across Canada to watch the Olympic torch pass through their towns will also be greeted by a 12-meter-tall baby "seal."
