Fishing Industry

A fishing boat on the south side of St. John's harbour. With the current election one would expect the fishing industry to be front and center. Sadly, it is not. For most people in the larger centers it's about oil and gas along with mining. The avaerage age of people working in the fishery is about 48 and very soon finding skilled workers will be a major challenge. Pictures of small fishing boats and fish plants will be replace with factory freezer trawlers.
