17 Crab fishermen leave the platform at 5 am on Monday morning, day later than expected.
The exit was to be done on Sunday, but due to hard winds, especially the shot was delayed.
But on Monday, in Quai de Rimouski, the weather is still difficult to fishermen. Temperatures below zero, the price could wait before removing the water to avoid frost.
As tradition wants, weird people went to the output of crabs very early on Monday. There were a dozen people on the site at Rimouski Quay.

The price of the crab depends on the possible American customs price tax. Ontario Prime Minister Doug Ford said that last week the United States could create “World Fees on April 2”.
From April 2, we will hear the news like everyone else. We will try to play there.
From April 2, I think we will do something. Several fishermen have fishermen in local markets. So things will regulate things a little
emphasizes optimism.
