Deep-water wells affect fish stocks

I was talking to a fisherman and he said that the herring fishery in October was a complete failure and that herring catches have been going down for the past three years. A failure of the herring fishery has never happened on P.E.I. before.

I asked him where they fish herring and he said Fisherman’s Bank near Murray Harbour and Pictou Island near Caribou, N.S. Herring are used as lobster bait and are a common fish in the world’s oceans, being called ‘the ant of the sea.’

Also, the fisherman said mackerel are now declining but were once abundant with shoals of mackerel thrashed the surface and were fished with seine nets; now mackerel no longer shoal and must be located with electronics and fished with baited lines.

Farley Mowat, in ‘Sea of Slaughter,’ says that mackerel are deep-sea breeders while herring and squid mostly spawn close inshore.

A professor of hydrogeology at Stanford asked me two questions about P.E.I.: Who protects the ocean? And do you have an Endangered Species Act? How would you respond?

By releasing energy from the earth via deep water wells our corrupt governments and their scientists have irreversibly changed the distribution of pressure gradients within the earth, thereby turning off bubbling springs and diffuse discharges within the ocean; discharges which are likely spawning areas, highly likely.

I can only regard what has gone on with deep-water wells on P.E.I. as a degenerate form of environmental vandalism; obscene and unspeakable.
