Visit outports, not just pups, sealer tells McCartney

A former president of the Canadian Sealers Association says Sir Paul McCartney should come visit the people who rely on sealing to make a living, rather than just watching seals on ice floes. The former Beatle travelled to see seal pups off the Magdalen Islands, and called on Canada to ban the commercial seal hunt.

The sealers don't make their living from the seal hunt. They are actually fishermen who spend two weeks max at the seal hunt---they are hardly dependent on it for their living.
