It is a well-known fact among Newfoundlanders that if you want to be successful, it is necessary that you will need to leave the island. There is a sad reality that jobs and opportunities in Newfoundland itself are lacking, which causes for tight budgets or a goal to one day work away.

Introduction In the article, ‘Report of the Review of the Regulations and Policy for Direct Fish Sales in Newfoundland and Labrador’ Eric Dunne Consulting Initiatives (2010) focus on examining the state of direct sales of fish to facilitate regulatory improvements in the fishery industry.
