I like it when people actually do something instead of talking about it, and stick it to 'em.
Especially when I'm passionate about the whales too.
so my hats off to him and the other involved for that, I think it's great.
But there has been some stuff exposed that not so great. Like (I think I heard) he ordered that the Ady Gill be sunk as publicity stunt or something like that.
No such folk hero status here in Oz that I am aware of, he's Canadian I think, not Australian, so nothing to do with us really.
But Australia does take a more active role in Whales conservation that most countries, because it's usually happening somewhere in our waters.
I wish our government they'd spend more time trying to stop the Japanese whalers than the boat people. The $500M we just spent greasing up the Indonesians to help with the boat people fiasco would have bought a lot more legal action against the Japs.
