Conservationists warn increased herring quota could lead to collapse

Conservationists warn that the increased herring quota could lead to an irreversible collapse of the fishery, according to Pacific Wild.
On March 3, 2025, Fisheries and Oceans Canada extended the moratorium on herring until 2026, while increasing the total allowable catch by 14% this year.
Experts state that herring stocks are still in the critical zone, which they have been since the early 2000s.
Indigenous leaders and conservation groups are calling for an immediate moratorium on the commercial herring roe fishery to protect B.C.'s herring stocks.
