Can you fish in a pandemic? Seafood industry facing hard COVID-19 questions

The inshore fishery in Newfoundland and Labrador will not start until May 1, a delay that has bought planners more time — but has done little to answer questions about how a key industry is supposed to operate in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic.
 

The Department of Fisheries and Oceans said Thursday no commercial inshore fishery in Newfoundland and Labrador will open before May 1, as the department and industry players work out protocols for safer operation of vessels and processing plants.

According to Keith Sullivan, the president of the Fish, Food & Allied Workers union, plant workers and fish harvesters have many questions about how they are supposed to keep themselves and their families safe.

"The vast majority of the input and the feedback and everything we're hearing from members is that right now, with all of the advice that we have, they certainly don't feel safe," Sullivan told CBC Radio's The Broadcast.
