    Thumbs up New group calls for seal and sea lion cull on B.C.’s coast

    Members of the Tsawwassen First Nation are teaming up with commercial and sport-fishers on B.C.’s coast to call on the new federal fisheries minister to allow a West Coast seal and sea lion harvest. The group, called the Pacific Balance Pinnipeds Society, says that growing populations of seals and sea lions endangers future salmon populations.

    Of course the Global reporter got the population numbers all wrong, and the anti's at Ocean Wise have started their bleating already.
    But, this is an initiative that is long overdue IMHO, and I will support it any and every way I can...

    We were fishing at Ambleside park last saturday and these damn sea lions would go so close to us to steal fish. There was 6 of them. Not afraid of humans at all. We had to smack them away as they were getting feisty. I wonder if one could carry a shotgun while fishing and call it predator defense...

    I’m all for it. A sea lion mount would look great in my living room. Hopefully they taste good. I highly doubt anything will come of this though. All the urbanites and and our looser premier will put a stop to it.

    In this you are in error. This is going to fly.
    The program will be run by FN's who simply do not care what the huggers have to say.
    Horgan & his pet Dream Weaver have NO SAY whatsoever in the process. Period.
    Although the feds are gunshy, they understand something has to be done, and are quite willing to let the FN's take the lead on this as a consequence.

    Mark my words, this IS going forward!!

    About Time.
    The challenge of retirement is how to spend time without spending money.
    The worst day slinging lead is still better than the best day working.
    Look around is there someone you can introduce to shooting because that’s the only way we will buck the anti gun trend sweeping Canada! "tigrr 2006"

    Why do FN's think they need approval for this. Hunting seals is a part of their culture. It is clearly so, unlike some other things they claim. They should have been killing and eating seals all along.
