The Honourable Gail Shea, Minister of Fisheries and Oceans, is proud to lead a delegation of Canadian fisheries and aquaculture representatives and industry members. Fish and seafood is one of the largest single food commodities exported by Canada.
Seafood Expo North America, previously known as the International Boston Seafood Show, is this continent’s largest seafood trade event, drawing an estimated 19,000 buyers and sellers from more than 100 countries, including businesses across Canada.
Consumers can be confident that Canada has a robust fisheries and aquaculture management system to ensure sustainable seafood today and well into the future, making Canadian seafood a very responsible as well as delicious choice. Seafood Expo North America is therefore a great forum to further highlight our very responsible practices, build on our positive reputation and reach new markets.
