I Signed and just so everyone knows I like sushi and a bunch of other Japanese products but I will NEVER knowingly buy more of them until Japan stops destroying our Oceans and wiping out precious species in the name of their taste buds. secure.avaaz.org/en/days_to_...FIfIab&v=61388Thank you

I agree with you about the whales (I support Greenpeace & WWF) but 99% of Sushi in Canada is Korean and even the Japanese stuff is from non-Japanese fish by Japanese-Canadians.

Good to know but I hope you understood what I meant by that. The fact that in Canada sushi is as you claim does not change the fact that the initial and most signifiant driving force behind Sushi is Japan. So if I have to stop eating all of it to make sure that I don't support that 1,10,20 etc.percent that are in the wrong; then that is what I choose to do.
The whole point is we know what the problem is and who is doing it. Support and demonize as you wish from there.

I love whales. I wouldn't be against a boycott of Japanese goods to try and force them to stop whaling. Stopping eating sushi in Canada would only hurt Canadians. Support Greenpeace if you want to save the whales. I'm the biggest monthly supporter of Greenpeace in Canada (when I last checked earlier this year) so I'm not just blowing hot air.

I have failed to explain my point and I don't want to derail the thread with a long pointless debate. I think we are on the same boat but express it differently and there will always be room for misinterpretation . I think whoever wants to help should do it however they can whenever they can.
Regards

I understand your point. I have to respect someone who will deny himself the pleasure of (good) sushi to help our cetacean buddies.
Save the whales!
Hooyah!
