Much
as
hasbeen
done
todevelop
and
conserve
our
fishing
industry,
there
still
remains
a
great
deal
to
be
accomplished.
Tho
vast
new
of
our
waters
and
the
extent
and
ruggednew
of
our
coast
make
organized
protection
and
administration
extremely
costly.
But
the
safeguarding
of
our
fisheries
Is
n
matter
which
now
commands
the
earnest
attention
of
our
government,
who
realize
the
importance
of
conserving
this
basic
industry.
As
the
oldest
industry
of
our
Dominion,
fishing
has
been
one
of
the
largest
revenue
producers,
and
it
Is
significant
that
Canada's
youngest
Province,
in
less
than
twenty
years,
should
secure
n
leading
position
in
the
world
market.
This
aggressive
search
for
foreign
business
has
been
an
asset
which
undoubtedly
has
created
.one
of
the
most
amazing
records
of
our
basic
industries.
Well
may
we
be
proud
of
our
Fisheries!
