The largest salmon cannery in Canada, owned by one of Canada's richest men, Jim Pattison -- is closing its processing plant in Prince Rupert, leaving 500 people out of work.

Now, workers in Prince Rupert are demanding that the federal government revoke the fishing license for Canfisco and instead give these licenses to local fishermen to create local jobs.

Justin Trudeau promised change when he got elected to Ottawa. It's time to move away from the rip-and-ship resource model from the Harper decade and move to a resource model that creates good local jobs.

Figures, before Christmas, nice rich man. He probably also give to charity and has a 'giving' reputation. JMHO.
