He was charged by the federal > Dept of Fisheries and Oceans for harassing and obstructing Cuban and > Spanish drag trawl fishing operations on the Tail of the Grand Banks in > 1993. The ships, ignoring international conservation measures and > ignoring Canadian efforts to save the last of the commercial harvest > on the Grand Banks, were over fishing the depleted supplies. Canada > was unsuccessful in diplomatic efforts to stop the massive international > fishing efforts. So Paul Watson stepped in. He drew international > attention to the issue when he tried to cut the fishing nets of the > international "fish pirates". Instead of being praised by Canada, he > was charged with offenses. Canada, instead of charging the over > fishing, charged the conservationist. > > In 1995, Watson was acquitted of two charges of mischief endangering > life and was convicted of aiding and abetting an act of mischief. The > mischief charge relates to Watson's action of placing his ship, the > Cleveland Amory, in a position for a crew member to toss a stink bomb > onto the trawl deck of the Cuban dragger Rio Los Casas. The Canadian > prosecutor argued for a sixmonth sentence and Watson appealed for the > dismissal of the sentence. Both appeals were denied. The Appeals Court > cited that Watson did not show any remorse for harassing the Cubans and > did not apologize to Cuba for his actions.
