Whale Hunting, Indonesia

Canada
Canadian whaling is carried out in small numbers by various Inuit groups around the country and is managed by Fisheries and Oceans Canada. Harvested meat is sold through shops and supermarkets in northern communities where whale meat is a component of the traditional diet, but typically not in southern cities such as Vancouver, Toronto, or Montreal. The Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society says:
Canada has pursued a policy of marine mammal management which appears to be more to do with political expediency rather than conservation.
