Clifford Small Conservative
“The government is hurting Canadian fishers. It is letting European fishers back into our waters after they spent years overfishing our stocks. The Prime Minister should cancel this fishing deal with France to protect Canadian jobs.”
“Mr. Speaker, obviously, the minister is not familiar with this issue. The Liberal government has turned its back on Canada’s fishing industry. The Prime Minister is abandoning our sovereignty in favour of Europeans, who have a long history of destroying Canadian fish stocks. Yesterday, the Minister of Fisheries bragged about how she hung out with fishermen in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon. Conservatives stand with Canadian coastal communities instead of those on the French islands. Will the Liberal Prime Minister change course and cancel this deal with France to protect Canadian livelihoods?”
