Miller's callous comments not only affect seal-hunt activist or animal activist but considering it was a direct response to a comment that identified other very important issues to all Canadians and even anyone generally concerned with:
* Lost trade deals with Canada
* Taxpayer money subsidizing failing industry
* International reputation
* Tourism industry losses
* Animal cruelty
* Political doublespeak and dishonestry
* Responsible behavior by politicians

By the way Robert; don't bother with a public apology. It won't help your cause now.
