As you see, I'm not working for the Magdalen Islands lobster fishermen. In 2017 Costco did a big promotion about two weeks before the Magdalen Islands lobster fishery opened. They were selling on site, in their shops, with big banners...“Magdalen Islands lobster”, etc., which clearly could not be possible given the boats had not gone out yet. They would go out in two weeks' time.
Really, it raises the issue that was pointed out also by Ms. Leclerc, of how some distributors or providers inform the end consumer.
In all honesty, it is extremely puzzling how we can end up with situations like that. Even if the legislation is not perfect to protect the end consumer, here we are. It is raising a question of the credibility and control of some supplies or distribution chains in the seafood industry.
The Magdalen Islands fishermen lodged a complaint against Costco to that effect.
