Canadian Fishery Three main fisheries: Atlantic Pacific Freshwater Each fishery faces the same two problems: Overfishing Pollution

Canadian Fishery Figures from the Department of Agriculture The industry is worth more than $5 billion a year. Provides more than 130,000 jobs to Canadians. Economic mainstay of approximately 1,500 communities in rural and coastal Canada.

Atlantic Fishery John Cabot reached the shores of Newfoundland in NYB7Sko&safety_mode=true&persist_safety_mode=1 NYB7Sko&safety_mode=true&persist_safety_mode=1

Atlantic Fishery Inshore Fishery: Independent fishers use small boats to fish in the waters close to the coastline. They come home every night. High overhead costs. Pay is irregular but it is a way of life.

Atlantic Fishery Inshore Fishery continued: Catch includes: lobster, shrimp, oysters, clams, herring, mackerel, haddock, pollock, redfish, hake and halibut. Cost of a new vessel: $200,000. Only 5 to 20 m in length.

Inshore fishing boats

Atlantic Fishery Offshore Fishery: Use large company owned vessels like trawlers to fish in waters far from shore. Can withstand bad weather conditions better than inshore fishers. Can operate all year long. Only 15% fishers work in the offshore but it takes 90% of the catch.

Atlantic Fishery Offshore Fishery continued: Huge nets that drag along ocean floor. The boats have their own processing equipment on board. 20 to 5o m in length. Can cost as much as 5 million to build. Can make 24,000 in one year as opposed to 6,000 in the inshore fishery (1990 figures).
