Just thought I would give a brief update regarding shark fins in Toronto, they are not illegal although they have almost been and so they are quite a touchy subject.
Therefore when I went to have chinese food in china town I was surprised by the shark fin soup on the menu. My friend who is Chinese asked the waiter where they get there shark fin soup and if its real. He pointed across the street and said "market".
Which means they still are selling them openly.
We tried to find the market but nobody we asked seemed to know where it is or gave us brief directions down the road.
We decided to head home rather then be glared at for asking or get caught somewhere when the rain came.
It saddens me that even in a place where so much pressure and education was focused on the ban of shark finning has shark fins.
