I simply had the info below forwarded to me second hand so take for what it's worth and investigate yourselves.
I personally will be attending at least two of these meetings to voice my disapproval.
Hi Folx
You will recall last year we had planned on having public information sessions for the experimental recreational halibut fishery however they were cancelled due to the election. The plan is to go out this April to provide information on the program and the Department's plan for longer term implementation as per the Minister's announcement last month. Your participation will be important at these meetings. We will be going through the deck on our website (with some minor adjustments) and ads hopefully will be going into local papers by the end of the month.
Here is the schedule of meetings (6:30-8:00pm):
Ucluelet - Ucluelet Community Centre - Monday, April 16th
Campbell River - BC Marine Heritage Centre - Tuesday, April 17th
Port Hardy - Civic Centre - Wednesday, April 18th
Victoria - Victoria Marriott Inner Harbour Hotel - Thursday, April 19th
Queen Charlotte City - Queen Charlotte City Community Centre - Monday, April 30th
Prince Rupert - Highliner - Tuesday, May 1st
This is a heads up - more information to come….
Thanks
