CANADA AND GREENLAND 



<r^*^c.:: 



In a strip of coastal waters along the northern part of the 

 North American Continent, there are intermittent areas where shrimp 

 stocks are adequate to support commercial fishing operations. The 

 Canadian shrimp fishery, in British Columbia waters, is small in relation 

 to the salmon, halibut, and other major fisheries in the same region. 

 The shrimp catch is consumed in local markets. Other markets throughout 

 Canada are supplied by imported shrimp, chiefly from the United States. 



A small shrimp fishery is located in the Arctic waters of 

 western Greenland and production is increasing.
