Fresh from speaking out about alleged cruelty to animals in China, Paul McCartney has sent a letter to Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin remonstrating about that country's annual harp seal hunting season, urging the premier to ban the practice. The letter reads: "We wanted to put you on notice that if Canada moves forward with another hunt next year, we will do all we can to focus attention on this unjustified, outdated and truly horrific practice, including, potentially, visiting the seals and the ice."
