Fisheries lns

By RAE CORELLI Canadian Press Staff Writer

HALIFAX lCPr - E n o u g h emerged from a recent closed con- ference of fisheries inspectors here to show that:

1. Getting sub-standard fish into Canada can be as tough as trying to pass a counterfeit note.

2. Canadians each year are get- ting out of the Atlantic and Pacific an amount of fish equal in weight to more than 20 liners and the size of the 83.000-ton Queen Eliza- beth.

The conference took up the bet- ter part of a week in late Janu- ary. It brought together for the first time the fisheries depart- ment's four regional chief inspec- tion officers and a host of sides.

Fish most usually sold in the fresh and frozen state are cod. had- dock, bake. flounder. pollock and cusk. a cod-like creature.

A HARD ro ESTIMATE

Of course. many of these are also salted or pickled or smoked. This makes it nearly impossible to estimate what proportion of the national fish catch is being mar- ketcd at any particular time in

gestions, mostly of a manpower-

deployment nature. to speed up the
