A lot of work ahead as Fisheries and Oceans weeds out controlling agreements in East Coast fishery

As the Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) sets out on an ambitious journey to terminate controlling agreements in the East Coast fishery, the herculean task of weeding out such accords looms large.

In the face of this titanic challenge, the DFO has pledged to make substantial progress in the coming months, vowing to carry out a full assessment of the contracts and determine which ones are to be eliminated.

With the end of such agreements long overdue, the DFO is prepared to face the monumental task ahead by implementing a comprehensive review process, with the ultimate aim of liberating the fishery and ensuring more equitable distribution of the catch.

Underscoring the enormity of this undertaking, the DFO will have to navigate a plethora of complex regulations and contractual obligations while concurrently adhering to their mandate of sustainability.

In taking on this gargantuan endeavor, the DFO is confident that, with the proper dedication and a thorough examination of the agreements, substantial progress can be made in uprooting such contracts and restoring balance to the East Coast fishery.
