Description
Crab was king in Newfoundland and Labrador last year, but things have taken a turn this season. The Association of Seafood Producers has set the price of snow crab at $2.20 per pound — the lowest price in almost a decade. In response, some crabbers are refusing to set their pots. Matt Galloway speaks with Keith Boland, a skipper and snowcrab fisherman; and Alison Coffin, who teaches economics at Memorial University in St. John's.
