":::: Please  explain what the relevance of putting in the stuff about EU consumption of animals and use of animals for sport is? You've also messed up the references - it's not clear what is referencing what. Fix this can we can see whether it works. The other problem is with the '*Critics* of the EU's actions say ...'. Who are the critics? In the article I assume you mean to reference, we have stephen harper saying ""There is no reason the seal industry should be singled out for discriminatory treatment by Europeans or any other nation."". That is making the *exact* same point, and avoids the problems. Why are you so attached to the original text?
