Wakeham emphasized that joint fisheries management would grant Newfoundland and Labrador a direct role in decision-making, ensuring that local voices—not Ottawa—shape the future of the fishery.
PC Leader Tony Wakeham is renewing his call for joint fisheries management. This in light of recent revelations that Trudeau's Fisheries Minister, Diane Lebouthillier, ignored scientific advice by reopening the commercial cod fishery here. Wakeham emphasized that joint fisheries management would grant Newfoundland and Labrador a direct role in decision-making, ensuring that local voices—not Ottawa—shape the future of the fishery. He says the Premier celebrated the end of the moratorium on June 26th to reverse course a week later when he wrote the federal Fisheries Minister to express his dissatisfaction with the decision.
