Invest an extra $250M in the repair and maintenance of small craft harbours
"Invest an additional $250 million in the repair and maintenance of small craft harbours. These harbours are the backbone of the fishing industry, especially in Atlantic Canada, and are the homebase for many of Canada’s fisheries. Tackling much needed repairs and improvements will protect livelihoods, and help these small fisheries grow." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-21

Increase funding by 20% for each fisheries fund, and create a new Arctic Fisheries Fund
"Help our fisheries respond to tariffs and reduce the risk involved in expanding to new markets by creating a new Arctic Fisheries Fund, and revamping the Atlantic Fisheries Fund, the Quebec Fisheries Fund, and the British Columbia Salmon Restoration and Innovation Fund, increasing funding by 20% for each. This new funding will help our fishermen and women face tariff risks including on developing new export markets, new product development and promoting Canadian seafood for dinner tables here at home. Funding will also drive innovation, sustainability, and productivity so that our industry is set up for long-term growth." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-21
