Canadian Gov. General eats raw seal heart

In this week, I’ve eaten llama, alpaca and guinea pig, amongst other beasts. I mean, I am in Peru, it’s only customary. But I need to tip my hat to Canadian Governor-General Michelle Jean, who gutted and ate the raw heart of a seal.

As a sign of solidarity with the Inuk, Inuit and Nunuvut people, who are protesting the E.U’s ban on seal-hunting as cruel. The indigneous people of Canada rely on seal-meat, fur and other products to stay so cute and round during the harsh winters. The E.U is apparently more concerned about commercial culling than traditional subsistance hunting, with furs being sold to European and Chinese clothing manufacturers.

Whether you agree with seal-hunting or not, you’d have to admite it took some heart indeed for Gov. General Jean to stick it to the E.U in such a gory fashion.
