LMG Supports Mi’gmaq Communities in Nova Scotia

/in ,

The LMG supports the Mi’gmaq communities in Nova Scotia exercising their right to sell lobster under the Peace and Friendship Treaties and conducting fall fisheries governed by their own laws and fishing plans. It has been 260 years since our treaties were signed and 21 years since Marshall. We have waited long enough. If the DFO won’t provide a regulatory framework that allows us to exercise our rights, then we can do that for ourselves. Self-government. Self-determination.
