| Cruise Ship OWNS Whale-- Vancouver Port! 
"A fin whale has been impaled and killed on a Princess cruise ship that docked in the Port of Vancouver Saturday morning. The whale, about 20 metres long, was wrapped around the bow of the ship Saturday in full view of tourists at Canada Place, many snapping pictures of the disturbing sight."
hahaha.

They should sell it to the Japanese. They could use it for there research project: What happens to whale meat once it enters the human mouth.
