Newfoundlanders and Labradorians want to be able to fish cod 7 days a week, like the rest of Atlantic Canada. 
That's why I have decided to table this bill, which we call the "Recreational Groundfish Equality Bill." 

This bill will finally put Newfoundland and Labrador on an even playing field, allowing us to fish seven days a week, like the rest of Atlantic Canada. It will also offer predictability to the season, forcing regulators to announce any quota or rule changes and the opening of the season, with a minimum of 2 months' notice.  

It's about making it easier to put food on our tables during this time of skyrocketing grocery costs. This will keep families safe, as they will no longer need to risk their lives in high winds and waves on their only weekend off.
