"Chaos erupted in St. John's, Newfoundland, on March 23, 2025, as Liberal Leader Mark Carney launched his election campaign—only to be met by hundreds of angry crab fishermen! Protesting massive snow crab quota cuts in the 3K zone (down from 9,998 to 7,643 tonnes), the Fish, Food and Allied Workers Union took their fight to the St. John's Convention Centre. Blocked entrances, locked doors, and a tense showdown with police ensued as fishers demanded answers from Carney and Fisheries Minister Joanne Thompson. In this video, we dive into the clash, the stakes for Newfoundland’s fishery, and Carney’s promise to rethink the DFO. Was this a wake-up call for the Liberals? Watch to find out!"
