Japanese anti-whaling campaigner comes to Canberra

As whaling continues in our waters, opposition is growing in Japan and Australia. In Japan, this is largely due to the bravery of activist Toru Sazuki of the infamous “Tokyo Two”, who exposed corruption in the Japanese whaling industry. Toru is coming to Australia and will be the keynote speaker at the Greenpeace Justice for the Whales rally on the 12th February in Canberra. Toru will bring a unique insight into the Japanese whaling industry and the progress being made in Japan.

Representatives of the ALP, Coalition and the Greens have also been invited to speak at the rally which will call on the Australian and Japanese Governments to end whaling in the Southern Ocean Whales Sanctuary. There is more information here and on Facebook.
