Canada to close ports due to over fishing

The overfishing of shrimp has pushed the Canadian government to decide it will close its ports to ships from Greenland and the Faroe Islands, authorities say. The North Atlantic Fisheries Organization sets catch limits for each member, and Greenland and the Faroes allegedly refuse to abide by the quotas, the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. said Sunday. Federal Fisheries Minister Gail Shea said the ports would be closed Monday.
