The St. Mary's Bay region continues to see more violence after fishers allege that out-of-season fishing of lobster is being done on a large scale.
In an interview following the reports from the RCMP, a group representing Indigenous leaders in Nova Scotia told Global News on Thursday that there has been a large amount of misinformation regarding what’s happening in St. Mary’s Bay.
In a social media post, DFO said that Indigenous communities are authorized to fish for food, social, and ceremonial purposes with a licence. According to the Atlantic Policy Congress of First Nations Chiefs Secretariat, Indigenous fishers aren’t fishing enough to endanger stock. The Maritime Fishermen Union called on all levels of government, including fishers on both sides to get to the table.
