Cooke Aquaculture’s Kelly Cove division has been fined $40,000 (€29,836) by Health Canada for not using a pesticide properly.
Environment Canada charged three Cooke Aquaculture executives for illegal pesticide use in the Bay of Fundy between 2009 and 2010. The government suspects that it was responsible for killing large numbers of lobster, reported The Telegraph Journal when the charges were filed in early November.
Kelly Cove, which has come under fire from critics of its aquaculture expansion plans in Nova Scotia, was issued 10 notices on Sept.
