Fisheries Minister Pleased with Northern Cod Quota for Indigenous Groups – VOCM
Jun 29, 2026
The federal fisheries minister says she’s “pleased” with the amount of Northern cod allocated for Indigenous groups across the province.
Earlier this month a number of Labrador based groups asked Ottawa to go back to the drawing board on the Northern cod allocation – including the Nunatsiavut Government.
Minister Joanne Thompson says there were opportunities for groups to acquire more quota had they wished.
