Canada's Governor General skins seal and eats heart

I’d rather see Dominique Swain naked than wear fur.

Of course, if I stopped wearing fur, Dominique Swain would stop getting naked, so…

Let’s not forget that the Queen herself engages in hunting, and has even been known to club the occasional peasant to death with her walking stick. Uhh, pheasant. I mean pheasant!

I was just sure when I saw this that it was going to be someone upset about it. I’m glad I was wrong.

I doubt this will lead to Canada hawking it by the pound outside of local Delis.

Still, I could almost hear it… :smiley:

My respect for her just increased as well (she was a pretty good egg in my book before).

What other head of a country skins an animal and eats their fucking heart??? Damn! Canada, don’t mess with us, or we’ll rip out your fucking heart and eat it!!!

Note to self: Do not, under any circumstances, irritate Her Excellency,
the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean, Governor General of Canada.

In Newfoundland they sell it from trucks by the side of the road - with a big sign that says ‘CARCASS’ and ‘FLIPPERS’.

Heh. Yeah, I guess you pretty much know what you’re getting when you see they’re a spokesperson for PETA.

ETA: But wait a second; they’re name is People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. What’s more ethical than humanely culling animals so they don’t overbreed and starve to death?

Meh. I liked her better when she was opening the Olympics in Vancouver. Nothing had to die for that.

The same is true for the people of Haiti, but I don’t see anyone proposing that.

Heidi Klum must be devastated.

But that’s not why they’re killing seals, which means, in technical parlance, this is a self-serving lie they tell.

You’re going to get this thread kicked into Great Debates if you keep that up.

Understood. I’m not the one who suggested it was ethical, but I won’t flog it. :slight_smile:

Sorry - that looks like I was Junior Modding. I just meant that the mods have been on a kick lately to get us to stop debating outside of Great Debates - if you’d like to go debate it, I’m game. :slight_smile:
