    That is pretty sad. I wish them the best but they could have gotten the benefits and safety of joining the EU while negotiating protections for their fishing rights and waters. Britain kept their currency when they joined the EU, Iceland could have kept their fishing. Anyways, that is my take but I’m not in Iceland or the EU so maybe it’s misinformed. Middle countries are safer and more prosperous together. Hopefully Canada will pursue EU membership.
