Too many dead lobsters are turning up in traps at Deer Island and Grand Manan apparently killed by a pesticide which is used to kill sea lice.
David Coon of the Conservation Council tells CHSJ News the pesticide in question is not approved for use in this country and he believes it was used on salmon cages.
Coon says it appears someone who was desperate took matters into their own hands. M-P Greg Thompson is asking Fisheries Minister Gail Shea to investigate. Environment Canada has already launched its own investigation.
