they dont even make a case of what benefit this provides besides money for specifically them. Go into a different industry if consumers dont want what you're selling.

MajorHavoc,

But… What if clubbing baby seals is their calling? /s

fidodo,

But they want money without having to adapt, why won’t people just give them money for things they don’t want?

jaybone,

Maybe the seal population needs to be controlled? 🤷‍♀️

fidodo,

If that were the case you’d think they would mention it

Don’t worry, great white sharks have been spotted not far from where the seals live. Soon the seal population won’t need to be controlled by a quick death by humans. It’ll be controlled by great white sharks tearing them apart!

Then we can all be happy!

TheDoctorDonna,

How is seal meat still an industry? We have no need for seal anything, we aren’t Inuit people living way up north or some shit.

Fucking capitalism will murder anything it can.

Ghyste,

We’re sure this isn’t a satire site?

fidodo,

What the fuck did I just read?

Wouldn’t you like to know ;)

Anyone who thinks the seal meat industry should expand greatly should either supply a very good reason for why anyone should want to support this or retire. I opened that article just to see if it had an answer to “why?” and there was none to be found.

The closest was “people eat lamb chop and veal sandwiches all the time”, which has never been the case for me. I’d try it, but wouldn’t go out of my way for it and wouldn’t make a habit of it, especially not to just support the seal industry.

Most likely, if they had a good reason, it would have been the focus of this article. But since there wasn’t one, I can only assume that they have none.

Edit: I’m referring to the senators trying to push this as if it is something that benefits Canadians for the retirement comment, as I see I didn’t qualify that “anyone”.

Taking bets on bot or clueless.

Buddahriffic,

That all you got?

fidodo,

They have a great reason, they want more money.

Buddahriffic,

Well yeah, but I meant a good reason for anyone else to care.

She really needs to just put the whole music thing on hold and help us with literally everything else, apparently.

reddig33,

Is this Ottawa’s version of “The Onion”?

fogstormberry,

Hell no. Our healthcare is completely screwed right now and instead of school shootings we have everyone car being jacked.

Is she going to eat all those seal pensises herself? Come on Taylor, share!

EmergMemeHologram,

Why are we talking about Russia when my Ontario elementary school showed videos of the seal hunt? I vividly remember that happening with a strong: this is wrong take.

Landmammals,

I was expecting that they wanted Taylor to speak out against seal meat, not endorse seal penis meat.

Naw. It’s them seal penises, gotta sell the aphrodisiac; and who better than T Swift?

Landmammals,

If anybody knows about Seal penis, it’s Heidi Klum.

EmergMemeHologram,

Canadians need to realize that eating seal is as normal as eating a lamb chop or a veal sandwich,” added Kolga.

Am I having a stroke? What? What the fuck is going on with this article?

Who talks about fucking veal sandwiches like it’s an every day thing? I’ve never in my life seen seal meat for sale, not heard of anyone having tried it.

SatansMaggotyCumFart,

Have you never fucked a veal sandwich?

Highly recommended, especially if it’s freshly clubbed and still warm.

BonesOfTheMoon,

Been Canadian my whole 50 years, have never seen seal meat. Not even in gourmet grocers who sell wild animal meats. The local deli does sell veal parm though.

fidodo,

The seal industry lobby apparently

Son_of_dad,

Lol why in the fuck would she agree to that? I’d be surprised if she wasn’t vegan already.

And by the way, I kept being told that seal hunt and meat was for native populations to use and such. Now it’s become a corporate market? How is that tradition?

The Burns Omni-Net sweeps the sea clean!

gregorum,

This is curbing on the plot of an episode of Elementary from, like, 5 or 6 years ago.

It was ridiculous then too.
