Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
It should be the other way round, with "Indigenous first" policies.
Determine what sustainability means. Set limits in a way that allows for an actual livelihood without any individual or corporation being able to monopolize the fishery while allowing for a certain amount of noncommercial use, including for subsistence. If there's anything left over, open it up to non-indingenous people using similar guidelines.
That would be good, but given the Governments track record (regardless of which party is involved) I doubt anything like that will be implemented.
