Oh hey, an academic looked into this too. That's neat.
"In the Newfoundland fishery, there was some local ecological knowledge that knew about what was happening. For many years prior to the cod collapse, inshore fishermen (the ones "closest to the sea") were crying out about their diminishing takes, and pointing to the great loads being hauled in by the offshore trawlers and draggers."

We often joke here that #Newfoundland’s second biggest city is Fort Mac.
#Alberta swallows the youth of other provinces and sends them home when they can’t work in the oil fields anymore.
No wonder they, on paper, take in more and pay out less. People only live there to work.
Makes you wonder how shitty their economy would be without the portability of #CPP luring workers.
Does anyone have a recording of the National Research Council time signal for Atlantic or Newfoundland time? are there other hashtags that might help here #radio #cbc #canada #newfoundland #novascotia #newbrunswick #princeedwardisland #atlanticCanada
