May 24th - 2011
My home town surprised me the other week when it announced it was going to ban shark fin products. Yes! Brantford - Ontario - Canada would be the first city to ban such a horrific and inhumane practice and product. I decided I was going to support this vote and gathered up anyone willing to come and stand beside me and be apart of this "Historic Event" for Canada as a country let alone Brantford making history for its choice as well.
You can watch a video I put together combining my footage and a local newspaper called "Brantnews" who had a wonderful edited version here:
After you watch the video I have to say this is spreading into the Toronto area now where a couple of Councillors are pushing it to a vote shortly! So what Brantford did as a land-locked city has created a Tsunami wave of Awareness on land for the ocean and the sharks! Let`s keep this wave rolling!

The Brantnews had a photo of the shark supporting group.
Brantnews continues watching the shark story flow across the land to other municipalities.
