Take Action

International political pressure will be key to stopping Japan's illegal whaling in the Southern Ocean Sanctuary.

Contact Canadian Foreign Minister Lloyd Axworthy:

  • Tell the Minister you are outraged at Japan's continued illegal whaling in the Southern Ocean.
  • Urge the Minister to demand a halt to Japan's whaling program.

Sample Letter

The Honourable Lloyd Axworthy
Minister of Foreign Affairs
125 Sussex Drive Ottawa
Ontario K1A 0G2

I am outraged to learn that Japan continues to hunt whales in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary. This is illegal and undermines international law. Please contact the Japanese government and urge them to halt immediately their illegal whaling program.

Sincerely
