Nova Scotia 🇨🇦

Fisheries and Oceans Canada says fishery officers arrested one individual off the coast of Cape Sable Island, Nova Scotia, on June 3 after allegedly using a trawl net with a cod-end below the legal minimum mesh size during a flounder fishery.

The following day, officers seized 12,411 pounds of groundfish valued at $17,882 when the vessel offloaded at Dennis Point Wharf.

DFO says undersized mesh is illegal because it prevents smaller and immature fish from escaping, which can harm future fish stocks and the long-term sustainability of the fishery. The investigation remains before the courts, and anyone with information about suspected illegal fishing activity is encouraged to contact their local Conservation and Protection office.

When a foreign government owns our fish plants, Canadians should be paying attention.

Most Canadians assume that when seafood is harvested in our waters and processed in our communities, the benefits stay here at home. That is no longer always the case.

In Newfoundland and Labrador, several processing facilities are controlled by Royal Greenland A/S, a company wholly owned by the Government of Greenland. This is not a private investor. It is a foreign state with direct ownership in Canada’s seafood industry.

Through Quin-Sea Fisheries, the company processes species that are the backbone of Atlantic Canada’s economy, including snow crab, shrimp, cod, and lobster.

This is not an attack on Greenland or its people. It is a conversation about economic sovereignty.

Canadians should be asking: Should a foreign government control parts of an industry built on Canadian natural resources? Should profits from fish harvested in our waters be leaving the country instead of being reinvested in our own communities?

Canada debates foreign ownership of oil, minerals, and farmland. Fisheries should be no different.

If the fish are Canadian, the workers are Canadian, and the communities are Canadian, then Canadians are justified in asking why the ultimate owner is not.

A five year old male North Atlantic right whale, one of the world’s most endangered whale species, has been spotted twice this week in the Gulf of St. Lawrence while entangled in fishing gear. The whale was first seen near Shippagan, New Brunswick, and later west of Quebec’s Îles-de-la-Madeleine as officials continued efforts to locate and assess its condition.

Federal officials say photos suggest there may be little or no rope around the whale’s mouth, meaning it may still be able to feed normally. However, experts need to get closer to determine the severity of the entanglement and attempt a rescue if weather and sea conditions allow.

The whale, identified as No. 5192, belongs to the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale population, which numbers only a few hundred animals. Entanglement in fishing gear and ship strikes remain the two biggest threats to the species’ survival.
