Changing tides: Panel sides with union’s snow crab pricing formula
Its decision was not unanimous, but the provincial Standing Fish Price-Setting Panel has selected the final offer from fish harvesters as the price for snow crab for the 2025 season. The season began in most areas on Thursday, April 10, but it was not until late afternoon that the panel decision was announced. The three-person panel — chaired by Sheilagh Murphy and including Earle McCurdy and Brian Vallis — heard submissions from FFAW-Unifor and the Association of Seafood Producers (ASP) on April 6. While the full written reasons for the majority and dissenting opinions will be made public later, the panel’s letter to the provincial government about its decision indicated Vallis held the lone dissenting opinion among the panel members. more, >>CLICK TO READ<< 08:26
