It's hard for me to explain because my game references are mostly local as well. It tastes like turr. You've not had turr? It's kind of moose-y. You've not had moose?
So in going through this with a couple of people over the years, I've narrowed it down to you know what makes rabbit taste different from steak? Multiply that difference by 100 and you can imagine what game-y meat tastes like. Seal is the thickest, oiliest, heaviest, game-y-ist meat you will ever have - but still tender. It overpowers everything else in any dish it's in, like truffle. So you might as well enjoy it simply and by itself. Eating it on the cartilage is like picking the ginger and meat out of a lobster body. It's so good.
And, according to the Canadian constitution (as our Terms of Union is a constitutional document in Canada), seal is officially a fish - Pope let locals eat it on Fridays lol.
