Ritchie Co. Ltd., Toronto y' & uie world PROM the cold, deep Svatcrs ofthc Seven thousand miles of British Columbia s Pacific Coast, comes a harvest of fish that the palate of all mankind enjoys! Fjor over twenty years our Province has been a leading factor in Canada's fishing industry. Progress continues unabated... the markets to the ends of the earth demanding ever The past ten years have seen this industry grow from 14 million to 27 million dollars . . . an increase of 89. Our annual catch totals nearly half the entire Canadian production, and "Klnii Salmon," our marine sliver mine accounts for at least 15 million dollars a year. The distribution from our Provincial hatch' cries of millions of salmon eggs to renew the harvest that goes into the nets; the Treaty between Canada and the United States for the protection of the Pacific Halibut (March, 1923) providing a close season from November 16th to February 15th; modernized canneries, 83 in number, and sane Federal Fishing Laws, carefully administered, are the foundation of an industry that will continue to grow. The fame of British Columbia's Whaling Fisheries is of long standing, and has materially increased the value of the products fromsthls industry. The yearly catch, now about 40b, is taken between one station on Vancouver ITISK C Island and two stations on the Queen Charlotte Islands. Much as has been done to develop and conserve our fishing industry, there still remains a great deal to be accomplished. Thc vastness of our waters and the extent and ruggedness of our coast make organized protection and administration extremely costly. But the safeguarding of our fisheries is a matter which now commands the earnest attention of our government, who realize tho 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 juiciness has been an asset which undoubtedly has created one of the most amazing records of our basic industries. Well may wele proud of our Fisheries!
