Well today has become a very interesting day indeed. A small company in the fish buying industry has attracted the attention of a multi million dollar corporate processing operation. Due to the 36,000 pounds of Cod fish I brought from my harvesters and shipped to a local processor, some tension was created! This large processing corporation made a call to another cod processing plant and forced them stop buying products from us by, I’m assuming, threatening to stop the supply! As a new buyer, operating with one of the newest licences from our government, it seems they want to control what I am able to do! Is my little operation making that big of a difference to this big processor that they want to me out ? Seems like it to me! But I can guarantee that I doubt I’ll be going anywhere anytime soon! For every fence you built in front of me I’ll most likely find a way around it. The greed of One never ceases to amaze me! The power hold they have here is unbelievable, and government has stopped the issuing of new processing licenses, WHY? With two days of cod buying in this province they blocked up all processing company’s solid ! Two days , sounds like there’s a processing problem and this problem needs to be addressed! This is year one and we have made waves with just three weeks of planning. Next year we will be better again!
