Canada's governor general eats seal's heart

Hey, this should get the Left into a spin! Which button do they push? The touchy-feely multicultural one, or the green one?
 
The viceroy of Queen Elizabeth in Canada:
ate a slaughtered seal's raw heart in a show of support to the country's seal hunters, a display that a European Union spokeswoman on Tuesday called "too bizarre to acknowledge."
 
Governor General Michaelle Jean, the representative of Britain's Queen Elizabeth II as Canada's head of state, gutted the seal and swallowed a slice of the mammal's organ late Monday after an EU vote earlier this month to impose a ban on seal products on grounds that the seal hunt is cruel.
 
Asked Tuesday whether her actions were a message to Europe, Jean replied, "Take from that what you will."
One can only wonder what the next king of Canada might be thinking.
