It seems that Morrissey has been upsetting the Canadians with a rant against the nasty business of them smashing a nail into the heads of baby seals.
The singer called the annual slaughter 'greedy', 'dismaying', 'ignorant' and 'barbaric' and said that Canada has a sorry image due to its seal slaughter before finishing with 'only those of the thinnest intellect wear animal fur'.
Sadly, those with the thinnest intelligence also work in the Canadian Fisheries Department because the Fisheries Minister, Gail Shea, has hit back with a rant that Morrissey is 'looking for a popularity boost from attacking the livelihoods of people who live off the bounty of the land instead of living off record sales or TV ratings' and justified the hundreds of thousands of seals because there are over 7.4 million of them.
Morrissey then replied that 'simply because someone bears the badge of Minister does not insulate them from being a disreputable thug' and urged Canadians to 'speak up and stop this carnage in order to restore the global image of their country'.
Undeterred that she is never going to win the argument, Shea replied that the outlawing the seal fur industry would cost thousands of jobs to which Morrissey tripped the Godwins alarm by firing back that 'building and maintaining the Concentration Camps of Auschwitz also provided livelihoods, but this hardly made the Camps warranted'.
The EU and Russian ban on seal fur has reportedly shot a massive hole in the profits from seal pelts and the Canadian Fisheries justification for compelling a painful death on seal cubs is because there are a lot of them so i know who i am backing in this argument, and it isn't the Canadian with the Ministers badge and thin intelligence.
