100+ fishing vessels in Newfoundland & Labrador to be equipped with AEDs

The crew of 105 fishing vessels in Newfoundland and Labrador will be safer at sea now that each vessel will have an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), thanks to generous funding by Hibernia Management and Development Company Ltd. and Heart & Stroke's collaboration with the Newfoundland and Labrador Fish Harvesting Safety Association (NL-FHSA) the Fish Food and Allied Workers Union (FFAW/UNIFOR), the Professional Fish Harvesters Certification Board (PFHCB) and One Ocean.
