Robert F. Bukaty Christian Brun: Fishing Boat

American Lobster Dept: FREDERICTON - A week-old conflict over cheap American lobster driving down lobster prices in New Brunswick came to an end Saturday when disgruntled fishermen, the government and fishing processing plants reached an agreement, according to Winnipeg Free Press. "We put aside differences and just focused all our efforts on a resolution," Brun said and lobsters are unloaded from a fishing boat Thursday, Aug. 9, 2012, in Portland, Maine. THE CANADIAN PRESS/AP, Robert F. Bukaty Christian Brun of the Maritime Fishermen's Union said it took the whole week to focus and reach an agreement, but a tentative deal was reached Friday night and approved by most of the fishermen early Saturday morning.
