Herring is also a major staple food for us on the east coast of Canada. Stocks of Mackrel are at the lowest points ever recorded and the fishery has been shut. We all know about cod and Wild Atlantic salmon almost do not exist. Yet we are allowing ocean based fish farming companies that were shut down elsewhere to open all over the place here. Our politicians are courting these environmental disasters to create a minimal volume of low paid jobs in favor of destroying the very thing that keeps humanity alive. It’s insane.
