How long has seal hunting been going on in canada?
Inuit and Beothuk (among others) were doing it for millenium
English, French, Spanish, ect did it during colonial times.
Mostly Newfoundlanders and Nunuvat peoples do it today.

Since we found killing cute little seals was fun,you should try it.

For thousands of years. Seal hunting was the mainstay of the Inuit people long before the country became known as Canada.

since people up north realised they needed to eat but everything was covered with ice..and the only thing that comes out of the holes in the ice is seals... so it's seals and ice fishing...

Probably thousands of years. The Inuit have been there for a while. I am sure the Vikings killed a few when they showed up.

First nations have hunted seals for thousands of years.
Early settlers in the 15th and 16th century would hunt seals for food and oil mostly for personal use and some trade.
by the 19th century the seal hunt as it's known now really took off. Large schooners and later steam ships would go to the ice to hunt seals. Young men would sign on to sealing crews because you could make good money and because of the danger. It was dangerous particularly in the early days just before WWI there was a sealing tragedy that led to the deaths of many boys and men who were working the ice.
After thousands of years Harp seals still remain strong with 5 million off the coast of Newfoundland. Far from endangered pretty amazing considering how long they've been hunted, something must be going right.
