I’m so glad that Lollipop was admitted to the Vancouver Aquarium for care. My son, Matthew LeBlanc, who works for the Department of National Defense in the fueling jetty, found Lollipop on the Jetty and was worried about her the whole day. I am glad that she is doing well and has found a new home. I am pretty sure that Matthew will be making a trip to Vancouver so his two daughters can get a chance to see Lollipop. Matthew tells me all the time about the seals he sees down in the inner harbor and he has an enormous heart for any animal in destress. Thanks for all the great work you do.
