The Green Party allows Mr. Miller to be pro-seal hunt.
Because of this, we do not support a petition against him.
Eleceted official of Green Party called FriendsForSeals.org "douche bags" as you can read about in the article link below.
Please note that the name-calling is not an issue with FriendsForSeals.org.
We aren't looking for an insincere apology.
Mr. Miller has made it clear that he DID NOT call ALL animal activists this foul name, but us only.
He tweets repeatedly accusing us of libel.
He so far has not responded to us with our many requests, asking him to what he is referring.
He has contacted us many times, but refuses to answer why he tells his followers that we lie.
Mr. Miller is in St. John's Newfoundland and is pro-seal hunt.
The Green Party Canada as a body has a firm stance of being against the commercial seal hunt.
From this exchange with us that Mr. Miller created, came what has turned out to be a startling revelation to many.
Elizabeth May, Green Party leader has confirmed that not all elected members are, nor have to be against the seal hunt, so long as they support most of the party's beliefs.
We're here to keep you informed about the largest massacre of marine mammals on the entire planet and how you can help to finally put it to an end. You’re not alone; conservative and liberal, vegan, vegetarian and meat-eating people agree that the slaughter is inhumane and unnecessary. Approximately 95% of the seals massacred are 3-weeks to 3-months old.

WWF Supports Seal Slaughter in Canada
We understand that many people around the world feel strongly about the suffering of the individual seals killed in the hunt and we share this concern. To inform the ethical debate on the annual seal hunt, WWF promoted the establishment of an independent expert panel of veterinarians to assess the treatment of harp seals during the course of the hunt, including the manner in which seals are hunted. The veterinarians report has been presented to the Federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) and its key recommendations are being acted upon by DFO management and have been favourably received by industry. The panel will continue to be active in promoting humane hunting methods.'
What WWF didn't address here is that, with regards to that specific study, what was found by the independent veterinary panel was that the 'hunt' is inhumane. Why did WWF leave that out of their comment?
Also, WWF is saying that since it was reported to the DFO, that animal welfare groups should just let it go at that. We knew full well then that the DFO wouldn't pay attention to the study and guess what???....they didn't!

Why boycott ?
We participate in the promotion of boycotting fish from Canada. Why? Full-time fishermen are the ones who kill the seals. Now with no market for seal products, they leave most of the seals behind, wounded, piled to rot, or dumped back into the ocean.
Details of the why and who we boycott can be found here http://www.friendsforseals.org/why-boycott/
Other participants of the boycott include Humane Society , Sea Shepherd Conservation Society , International Fund For Animal Welfare ( IFAW ) , and more.
Seal Hunt Canada is a dead industry. So why continue the killing?
News: Senator Mac Harb talks about how the days of making money on the commercial seal hunt is over.
