For the young people in LaPoile life is sweet especially when they have school holiday.
Some off their school friends takes the 90 minute ferry to party with them. Here they do not need to fear the police stopping them from drinking beers.
For generations, families in fishing communities have survived of the bounties of the ocean. The family trade was passed from father to son. Now it is a way of life that has all but vanished. With the government ban there are no jobs, and only a few fishing communities remain.
