Montreal Canadiens' Bruiser Bashes Furriers

Posted at 03:15 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 15 )

The Montreal Canadiens' star enforcer, Georges Laraque, is brawny and brainy. He's vegetarian and steers clear of pigs, chickens, and other commonly consumed animals, a decision he made after seeing the animal-friendly feature film Earthlings. Not only that, but he teamed up with dozens of members of Concordia Animal Rights Association (CARA) this weekend to protest outside the North American Fur & Fashion Exposition of Montreal.

CTV News (CFCF), CJAD radio, and *Montreal Mirror* lined up to talk to the hockey star about the notoriously cruel fur industry.

Georges needed our PETA Logo tee in size XXL to cover all those muscles!
