100% Shark Fin Free Canada! Important Details!


Picture Source and Details: http://finfree.eventsbot.com/

It has been a few years since Toronto has seen some great positive action for the shark species. Sharks are what got me into the animal world and it all started with the movie Sharkwater! Sharkwater was starred and produced by a local Torontonian Rob Stewart. It brought Landlocked cities like Toronto to the ocean issues and the plight of the shark species. This movie brought me to starting a campaign against Shopper's Drugmart and then Holista for their shark cartilage. We won a Nationwide Campaign against Holista when Sea Shepherd came on board and started up dialogue with Holista and our large "Year of the Shark" network all jumped in and educated the company. Well now here we are with the THIRD's a Charm issue! The Banning of Shark Fin possession and consumption in Toronto.

Extremely Important Information Below!

The opposition is going to be out in full force at Toronto City Hall this week where the motion to ban shark fin is on the agenda. We need people to testify this FRIDAY, Sept 9 at 9:30am in support of the ban - max 5 min each, especially those with personal experience or close connections to the cause.
