According to Mom, the fishing industry collapsed in the early 90s and never really recovered.

The blame game & greed killed the cod fishery. That will never change.

Its called overfishing. Generations and Generations of overfishing. No one else to blame but man himself. This is what happens when people get greedy. The way of the world. Don't feel sorry, only for the fish.

Overfishing - that's true. The culprit is not Canadian fisherman. It is the Portuguese and other fleets that come in and catch Tonnes ILLEGALLY but the Canadian government doesn't sink them.

Ah, the human collapse is nigh. A good day for volumes of suffering in the universe, like your fishing stocks they will go down. Dead people don't cry, or breed new cry babies.
