IMHO The reason for the increase in white sharks in Nova Scotia, and I would also suspect in Maine waters is the Federal protection of white sharks in 1997 has resulted in big increase in white shark numbers on the East Coast. The whites are feeding in great mnumbers on the seal buffet on Cape Cod beaches but unlike us, the White sharks don't eat daily, and more likely eat a seal every 10 days. This means some of them could be easily up in Nova Scotia looking for their next seal meal, since they can easily cover 50 or more miles in a day.- Tom

Hmmm. So the great whites saw the no fishing zone signs and feel safe there?

“Great white...”

That is so racist.

White Nationalism spreading to the Ocean is clearly a result of global climate change, which we can all agree is Donald Trump’s fault.

More importantly, now everyone is going to need a bigger boat, further causing impact on our environment.

The only solution is for ANTIFA to dive right on and confront these ocean going racists on their own ground.

Why are they swarming where mostly white people go? Is that why they call them Great Whites?

You can’t swim in most lakes and ponds any more because zebra mussels will cut your feet.

You can’t walk through the forest any more because deer ticks will bite you and give you Lyme disease.

Now you can’t swim in the ocean any more because of sharks.

All these threats have civil rights now, so tough nouggies. Learn your place in the cosmos, and check your privilege.

We need a Federal protection of seals act in 2019.

The old Grand Banks cod dory fisherman wouldn't have enjoyed the presence of Great Whites.

Uhm, does this apparent incrase of great white sharks being spotted off the coast of Nova Scotia have anything to do with white privilege? Are there any African American sharks or Mexican sharks that we could introduce up there to even number of white privilege sharks?

Is there anyone like Al Sharkton we could bring in to advocate on behalf of minority sharks?

Clearly, notification needs to be posted that the area is a Shark-Free Zone. I’m sure no shark would break the law.

Kill one.

The rest will take off for couple of weeks.

When they come back kill another one.

Continue doing this until the summer ends or they realize that area is bad news.
