正文(英文) | April 24, 2019 Rivière-au-Renard, Quebec - The governments of Canada and Quebec recognize the economic and cultural significance of the fish and seafood sector to many of their coastal communities. The sector provides close to 7,000 jobs in Quebec, and its fish and seafood exports were valued at over $416 million in 2018. Today, the Minister of National Revenue and Member of Parliament for Gaspésie—Les-Îles-de-la-Madeleine, the Honourable Diane Lebouthillier, on behalf of the Minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard, the Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson announced with the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food of Quebec, André Lamontagne, that the Quebec Fisheries Fund is now accepting project proposals. The Quebec Fisheries Fund (QFF) is a five-year unique and unprecedented collaboration agreement between the Government of Canada and the Government of Quebec where projects are developed, implemented and approved jointly to develop this important economic sector. This partnership between the two orders of government modernizes and drives innovation in Quebec’s sectors of harvesting and processing of fish and seafood, and in aquaculture. The federal government will contribute $30 million, and $12.8 million will be provided by the government of Quebec. The QFF will support local projects in the areas of innovation, scientific partnerships and infrastructure in commercial fisheries, aquaculture and processing. This will increase the value for sustainably sourced, high quality fish and seafood products, and help position the fish and seafood sector in Quebec for long-term ongoing growth. To be eligible, projects must focus on one or more of the following three areas:
The QFF is a good example of the spirit of the Federal Strategy for Innovation and Growth for the Quebec Regions. This strategy delivers a more coherent approach for the Government of Canada’s actions to support Quebec companies and workers, By prioritizing innovation, growth, skills development, exports and the participation of everyone, the strategy advances economic growth and vitality of Quebec's regions.
