Nova Scotian sealer Shane Briand's comments regarding the behaviour of the Farley Mowat crew are highly suspect. He and crewmates of Nova Scotia vessel Cathy Erlene were caught on videotape violating Marine Mammal Regulations and ignoring the new three-step process, killing seals inhumanely. The video evidence has led to speculation that Briand's complaints were fabricated to remove observers from the area, preventing further documentation of illegal and inhumane acts commited by the crew of the Cathy Erlene.
