O n behalf of the prime minister, I wish to acknowledge and thank you for your letter of April 3 concerning the seal hunt.
T here is indeed a great deal of misinformation circulated on the seal hunt issue.
Although the government continues its efforts to make the facts of the issue known, some groups continue to circulate incorrect information, and there is unfortunately little that can be done except to provide the facts and hope that eventually the issue will be made clear. Mr. Trudeau would want me to wish you the best of luck in your approach to anti-seal hunt groups to have them refute what they have led people around the world to believe about the seal hunt. F or your information, I have enclosed a copy of Mr. Trudeau's letter to Brigitte Bardot on the seal hunt, along with an information booklet. T hank you again for writing to Mr. Trudeau. Y ours sincerely, Hellie Wilson, assistant correspondence secretary.
