Nuu-chah-nulth Poise to Block Herring Fishery

[Nakoda boater]

I suspect we may have substituted one groups commercial fishery for another groups. The cynic in me questions if this is driven by conservation or power? Hope I'm wrong!

I doubt the DFO would give away "their" fish...

Seems the " their fish" is the big question?

Be careful of what you wish for people... Remember that First Nations has its eye on a bigger share of chinook in Barkley Sound and in other areas as well. What happens when FN decides that they think recreational fishers are taking too many of THEIR fish???? There is a bigger picture that needs critical examination..... just saying.

Bingo. Thank you Cuba. It's amazing how many really don't get what's at stake.
