Thanks, Marg, for starting this important issue, and I wish one of the =
respondents had written the subject into  the subject line.  Also beware =
of labels of seafood products in supermarkets and perhaps elsewhere =97 =
a few years ago, Marketplace had a bunch of samples tested for what was =
in packages vs. what was on labels, and I believe 10 to 20 % of the =
samples had incorrect labeling.  Also beware that some fish species have =
partial protection via different populations being at risk, e.g. for =
halibut, and some populations are therefore =93protected=94 from being =
harvested or sold.  Cheers! from Jim in Wolfville
