Oceana Canada says it was taken aback when harvester and processor representatives walked out of a capelin advisory meeting in Gander on Friday, March 22. – Saltwire file Daly took exception to being called an"extremist organization" by the FFAW, which he noted attended Oceana Canada’s symposium on rebuilding abundance in Ottawa two years ago. Former FFAW president Keith Sullivan even spoke at that event, he added.
“That’s not a radical position,” said Daly, whose organization has been publicly calling for this closure for the last couple of years, including doing so on its website and telling anyone who asks them about it. Daly said they refused to give up their places at the meeting, after which the other representatives all left, forcing DFO to cancel the meeting.
