Beware of the Fake Web Site

If you were looking for a tourism site for Newfoundland you might have found
www.tour-newfoundlandlabrador.com through one of the major search engines. Instead of finding recommendations of great restaurants or sightseeing tours, you'd find a website filled with anti-seal hunt messages and graphic images.

The Animal Liberation Front (ALF) is trying to punish the people and businesses in Newfoundland through economic terrorism .... destroying their tourism business in an effort to put pressure on those who are involved in the seal hunt. Unfortunately, it seems like lots of "mom and pop" businesses and B&B's who have nothing to do with the issue are bearing the brunt of this attack. That's unfortunate and unfair.
