“France announced a quota to catch Canadian snow crab right after its president met with the Prime Minister. I want to know why the Prime Minister is giving away our fishing rights to France.”
“Mr. Speaker, President Macron of France has announced a 1,500-metric-ton quota of snow crab, to be caught on Canada’s continental shelf. He released this shortly after his meeting with the Liberal Prime Minister a few days ago. According to French media, this Canadian crab will be caught by a French vessel and landed in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon. Why is the Liberal Prime Minister selling out our fishery to France, which has not even ratified CETA?”
