DFO is supposed to manage the fishery based on a diversity of the ocean, a balance sort of idea, so that things don't get out of hand and we harvest things so that one species isn't impacting the other, but in the five years they've been waiting, it looks like what they allowed to happen was a decimation of the shrimp fishery while they couldn't figure things out.
How many times, whether it's 30 years ago with the northern cod and all these things, do we have to go through this in Atlantic Canada when DFO can't seem to get their act straight until it's too late?
