Twin Maggies crew member Craig Landry pleads guilty to accessory after the fact in killing of Phillip Boudreau

July 24, 2015 Canada

During James Landry’s trial, Craig testified that after James fired four shots at Boudreau, Dwayne Samson repeatedly rammed Boudreau’s small open boat with the larger Twin Maggies. James Landry then hooked Boudreau — said to be still alive — with a gaff, and the Twin Maggies hauled him out to sea. On the two occasions Boudreau managed to slip loose, James Landry caught him. Craig Landry testified that he last saw Boudreau floating, naked from the waste down, limp and foaming from the mouth. Read the rest here 16:21

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing. Hence the term “overfished.” Hence the mandated knee jerk reaction of the fisheries managers to not enough fish; cut back on fishing. What of other factors? They don’t count. It’s all about fishing, because fishing is all that the managers can control; it’s their Maslow’s Hammer. When it comes to the oceans it seems as if it’s about all that the industry connected mega-foundations that support the anti-fishing ENGOs with hundreds of millions of dollars a year in “donations” are interested in controlling.
