As if the Canadian seal hunt wasn’t bad enough, now there’s one more reason to “blame Canada”. Earlier this week on CBC’s “Sounds Like Canada” talk radio show, I heard one of the most disgusting things ever: host Shelagh Rogers did a 21-minute piece on seal flipper pie. You heard right, a pie … made of seal flippers. Seriously, what person in their right mind would eat that? That’s like eating your dog’s paws. I can’t believe that this woman actually went on for 21 minutes about how to prepare a seal’s flipper.
Listen to the piece here (try not to vomit), then write, call, and fax to let CBC and Shelagh know that you’re sickened by their broadcast:

I still can’t get over it, I mean… seal flipper pie! WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?
Elsewhere in the world of radio, vegetarian pro surfer Anastasia Ashley appeared on the Adam Corolla show yesterday morning to talk about surfing, her upcoming calendar, and her new “Ocean Creatures: Too Beautiful to Kill” ad for peta2.
peta2 Street Team Coordinator + lover of vegan food, cats, animal rights, Dawson's Creek, and Harry Potter.
Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)
