Support the Whale Referendum:
Send an email to the Park Board Commissioners and Mayor Phillip
Owen. Tell the Commissioners and the Mayor that they should either
change the existing by-laws to ensure that the Vancouver Aquarium
will no longer be allowed to bring in more cetaceans into Stanley
Park, or they should support having a Whale Referendum in Vancouver
on the questions: "Should the Vancouver Aquarium be allowed to
bring more whales and dolphins into Stanley Park?" and "Should
the Vancouver Aquarium phase-out its whale and dolphin captivity
program ?"
