Coast Guard ready to curb Canadian fishing in U S waters
Rear Adm. Robert Scarborough says a US Canada fishing dispute may end in a few days but the Ninth District will enforce the law in U S territorial waters. A 24 hour grace period ended, Canadian fishermen face arrest. Canada may impound US catches and fine up to 25 000. The dispute stems from Canada suspending a fishing agreement, with salmon, redfish, cod and other species traded near coasts.
