Gillian Anderson calls on prime minister to end East Coast seal hunt
The East Coast seal hunt has another celebrity foe: X-Files star Gillian Anderson.
Anderson has called on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to end the annual commercial hunt.
In a letter Wednesday to the prime minister, Anderson says, “climate change is already decimating ice-dependent seals.”
The Department of Fisheries and Oceans issued an emailed statement saying the Canadian government is committed to supporting a sustainable, humane and well-regulated harvest.
