正文(英文) | August 12, 2019 Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Labrador - In recognition of Labrador’s important contribution to the ocean-based economy, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) is enhancing its presence in Labrador to better serve its clients. By re-profiling the existing DFO office in Happy Valley-Goose Bay into an Area office and establishing a new Area Director position as well as a number of other new positions, the Department will increase its service capacity to the Big Land and its people. The new Labrador Area exemplifies DFO’s commitment to advancing reconciliation and pursuing a renewed relationship with Indigenous peoples. It will enable DFO to work more closely with Inuit, Innu and NunatuKavut leaders, Indigenous organizations, stakeholders and all residents of Labrador on innovative approaches to program and service delivery. The Area office will be responsible for field operations of the Small Craft Harbours Program, Fisheries Resource Management, and Indigenous Engagement and enhance the services already available in Labrador. The Government of Canada is also investing in Labrador through the new Northern Integrated Commercial Fisheries Initiative. Under the program, the Innu Nation is receiving a $500,000 contribution to upgrade its commercial fishing vessel MV Atlantic Optimist. Repairs include decking replacement and upgrades to the vessel’s electronics and communications systems. Maintaining this vessel is key to ensuring Innu participation in the commercial fishery, and the upgrades will extend the life of the vessel by 15 years or more. The Northern Integrated Commercial Fisheries Initiative was formally launched on May 24, 2019, following a two-year review of Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s Indigenous programs. The new program provides funding and support to Indigenous groups and communities for the development and diversification of Indigenous-owned communal commercial fishing enterprises and aquaculture operations.
