The fish harvester benefit and grant was an extremely important program to help the fishers—captains and share crews specifically—get through COVID-19. Some of them were able to make some pretty difficult decisions about whether or not they were going to fish, because that funding was available to them.
As you said, 60% was released last year, with the other 40% being released once they were finished with the season. I will say that the program was actually extended on the other end, so we had to push it a bit this year as well. From where it was supposed to end—I can't remember exactly the dates of it last year—it was extended by about five or six weeks to allow more people to take advantage of it, so it got extended again this year.
I would like to turn to my department, though, and see if they have any update on timelines for when it can be applied for again.
