The cod fishery in Atlantic Canada experienced a dramatic collapse in the early 1990s, primarily due to overfishing and poor management practices. This led to a moratorium on cod fishing in 1992, significantly impacting local economies and communities dependent on the fishery. Although some recovery efforts have been implemented, the cod stocks have struggled to rebound fully, leading to ongoing challenges in the industry. The situation highlights the critical need for sustainable fishing practices and effective resource management.
