VANCOUVER (CP) --A changé in the offing in Japan's relationship with Canada. British Columbia fishermen say they are receiving inquiries from Japan--the second largest fishing nation of the world--' about buying more Canadian Gish. Industry sources said this was surprising as Canada and Japan have long been fishing competi- tors in certain areas, There have also been other moves by Japan to secure more fish. The only functioning Cana- dian whaling operation, off the West Coast, now is partly owned by the Japanese. Some sources also say "two or three" small B.C. canneries now are controlled by Japanese in- terests.

Japan may want to buy Ca- nadian fish to stabilize the sup- ply, he added. Mr. Lacas says Japan's ur- gent need for factory labor may force fishermen into industry, forcing that country to import fish providing Canada with one of its biggest markets. J. E. Antonelli, Canadian sales manager for the Fisher- men's Co Operative Federation, says he was surprised to get Japanese requests for a price on Halibut because Canadian fishermen consider Japan a competitor in halibut fishing.
