FFAW Members Blocking Out-of-Province Crab

FFAW Fish harvesters around the province are mobilizing to block out-of-province crab from landing in Newfoundland and Labrador for processing.

Harvesters and plant workers are calling on the provincial government to step in and for companies to respect workers in this province.

Harvesters and plant workers alike have called on the provincial government to prohibit bringing in crab from outside the province for processing.

The FFAW says that processing companies are trucking in crab from outside the province in an attempt to pressure NL plant workers back to work.
