When you choose Canadian seafood, you support a lot more than the person selling it.
You stand beside the crews aboard fishing boats that brave the oceans right here in Canada. The people who leave their families, work through the weather, and bring their catch home. People whose knowledge has often been passed down through generations.
And behind those boats are entire communities. The people making nets and ropes, supplying ice, repairing engines and keeping freezers running. The packers, processors, truck drivers and fishmongers who get that seafood from the water to your table. Alongside them are the farmers and harvesters raising and gathering seafood on Canadian shores and waters.
At Fisherman’s Market, we’re commercial fishermen ourselves. This is our livelihood, our family history, and something we’re proud to be part of.
It’s why we’ve launched Caught Here. Bought Here. To encourage more people to choose seafood caught, raised or harvested in Canada, and to stand beside the people it represents.
That means supporting Canadian seafood wherever you buy it. At your local fish shop, a grocery store, a restaurant, or directly from a fisherman. This reaches well beyond Fisherman’s Market.
As Canadians, we don’t need to speak poorly of other countries, their people or their leaders to stand up for our own. We can speak positively about Canada. We can take pride in what we produce. And we can put that support into practice by buying Canadian.
Next time you’re choosing seafood, ask where it comes from. When you have the opportunity, choose Canada.

Thank you for standing beside Canadian seafood and the people who bring it home.
