Abstract

In recent years, the fishing industry of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada’s newest and most easterly province and one that has a traditional dependence on the fishery, has seen market forces being relegated to second place by the organized strength of coastal people. It all began with a bid by a new consortium called NEOS Seafoods Inc. for a hostile takeover of Newfoundland’s (and indeed North America’s) largest seafood company, Fishery Products International (FPI), a publicly traded company.
