  ELSIPOGTOG FIRST NATION, N.B. The former chief of a New Brunswick First Nation says she s concerned the crab fishing season began too early this year after a boat recently capsized off the coast of Cape Breton. Susan Levi-Peters, former chief of the Elsipogtog First Nation, said in a recent interview more consultation is needed between Ottawa and First Nations fishers about when to open fishing seasons. Levi-Peters says she and other members of the First Nation were concerned about the timing of this year s crab fishing season which usually begins sometime in mid-April but she says the federal Fisheries Department went ahead and opened it early.
