May 6, 2009 EU bans Canadian seal products STRASBOURG, France — The European Parliament voted to ban imports of seal products Tuesday, trying to
force Canada to end its annual seal hunt, which animal rights groups have criticized as barbaric. The EU assembly overwhelmingly endorsed a bill that said commercial seal hunting, notably in Canada, is “inherently inhumane.” The bill still needs the backing of EU governments, but officials called that a formality since national envoys had already endorsed the bill.
