Canada’s Atlantic and Pacific coastlines provide exceptional habitats for a diverse range of groundfish species. From the cold, deep waters of the Atlantic to the nutrient-rich currents and rugged marine ecosystems of the Pacific, these environments support prized species such as rockfish, cod, sablefish, lingcod, and halibut. Harvested through well-managed fisheries, Canadian groundfish are recognized worldwide for their quality, versatility, and consistent supply throughout the year.
