This Lady Ate a Seal Heart

There is some brewing international trade drama between the E.U. and Inuits about seal meat which is deeply, incredibly fascinating, and I will fill you in later, but the main takeaway is: This fine lady, Governor general Michaelle Jean, who is Queen Elizabeth’s representative in the Canadian government, butchered and ate RAW SEAL HEART.

Then she said to the E.U., in laconic superhero fashion: “Take from it what you will.” Take that, Kate Connor.
