CANADA-FRANCE-BARDOT-SEAL HUNT

French film legend Brigitte Bardot speaks at a press conference in Ottawa, Canada, 22 March, 2006, in an attempt to stop Canada's annual seal hunt. Bardot made an emotional pitch to Canadians to help her stop the country's controversial seal hunt while Inuit youth protested her visit to Ottawa. "You must join me to ensure this hunt stops," she said, standing with some difficulty, crutches at her side, in front of a massive poster showing a seal in a bogus pose clubbing a human baby. "How can we continue to kill seals in a rich country like Canada... I am not crazy... I am pleading with you," she said, holding back tears after watching with reporters gruesome video footage of the hunt. "This will likely be my last visit to Canada before I die. I want to see this barbaric massacre stopped before then," she said. AFP PHOTO/Patrick DOYLE (Photo by PATRICK DOYLE / AFP) (Photo by PATRICK DOYLE/AFP via Getty Images)
