33. A dying industry!??
This has been going on a long for an industry supposedly in trouble! The CBC has a timeline news archive about "the seal hunt", called a dying industry in 1958. Wow, that sure was a bad analysis!

Below is a link to the whole CBC news archive/timeline on the subject. There is a strong movement in Greenland in support of the hunt. It was a huge topic of discussion among indigenous people in the 80's when I lived in the far north (not many other people were paying attention.
