"Invest an additional $250 million in the repair and maintenance of small craft harbours. These harbours are the backbone of the fishing industry, especially in Atlantic Canada, and are the homebase for many of Canada’s fisheries. Tackling much needed repairs and improvements will protect livelihoods, and help these small fisheries grow." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-21

"Help our fisheries respond to tariffs and reduce the risk involved in expanding to new markets by creating a new Arctic Fisheries Fund, and revamping the Atlantic Fisheries Fund, the Quebec Fisheries Fund, and the British Columbia Salmon Restoration and Innovation Fund, increasing funding by 20% for each. This new funding will help our fishermen and women face tariff risks including on developing new export markets, new product development and promoting Canadian seafood for dinner tables here at home. Funding will also drive innovation, sustainability, and productivity so that our industry is set up for long-term growth." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-21

"Increase support for farmers, ranchers, and producers, including in the fish and seafood sectors, to access new markets for their food products with an additional $30 million in the AgriMarketing Program.

Le Bloc travaillera avec le fédéral, le Québec et les milieux à l’élaboration d’un plan de diversification des marchés pour les pêches, alors que 85 % des exportations des produits sont dirigées vers les États-Unis

Le Bloc Québécois souligne que ces propositions menant à une meilleure connaissance de la réalité sur le terrain devraient pouvoir mener à des permissions raisonnables pour la pêche personnelle de diverses espèces.

Dans l’intervalle, le Bloc Québécois proposera de confier à une agence indépendante décentralisée la gestion des stocks, des permis et des quotas afin que toute décision sur les pêches soit basée sur la science, pas le favoritisme.

"Ban the export of unprocessed resources. Ensure Canadian oil, minerals, timber, and seafood are refined, processed, and value-added before export, creating Canadian jobs and reducing U.S. leverage over our economy." — Change: Vote For It, retrieved 2025-04-25

"Shift near shore fisheries management to Indigenous and community-led governance, ensuring that quota-setting, conservation decisions, and enforcement reflect traditional knowledge and local stewardship." — Change: Vote For It, retrieved 2025-04-25

"Enter into a formal transition proces store place the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) with Indigenous-led marine governance in regions where Indigenous, Inuit, and Métis Nations have asserted or are working toward the exercise of sovereign marine stewardship.

Until the sovereignty of Indigenous governance is fully recognized, ensure that the DFO operates only in an advisory capacity in these regions, supporting Indigenous-led management rather than directing it.

Support Indigenous Nations actively developing regional governance models — such as the Haida Gwaii model — and ensure federal recognition of emerging Indigenous marine governance systems."
