Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO), Gulf Region, invites you to participate in an upcoming information session regarding the implementation of mandatory Electronic Logbooks (ELOGs) for the 2026 fishing season in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence Rock Crab and Scallop fisheries.

It will provide an overview of the new requirements, guidance on how to use ELOGs, a review of licence conditions related to electronic reporting, available ELOG support contacts, and the list of approved service providers. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions.

Important notes: The session is focused on questions targeted to DFO. The meetings will take place via MS Teams (Please note there is a specific link for each session). Other dial-in info is also included if you cannot access the link.
There will be no translation during the meetings, which is why we are holding separate English and French sessions. ELOG suppliers will not be in attendance. For questions regarding these sessions, you can contact Annie Oulton : Annie.Oulton@dfo-mpo.gc.ca .
