No it's not a sustainability issue, it's about seals being a staple food in Northern Canada. I'm sure the Canadians are managing them so that they are sustainable and if they are being killed for food it makes sense to use the skins, as it makes sense to use pigskin and cowhide from slaughtered animals.
