I guess you're talking about a Canadian ban? They've been banned in the USA for decades. What about Scotland?

It was interesting when, in the 1980's, I visited a sporranmaker in Scotland who had a closet full of badger pelts which he could not use because they were banned in Scotland, though sealskin was perfectly fine (and still is, as far as I know).

Even the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders began getting their badger sporrans from North America (I could tell because the faces of British badgers and North American badgers look quite different.)
