The Fisheries Research Board of Canada / l' Office des Recherches Sur les Pêcheries du Canada (English acronym: FRB or FRBC) was for about 36 years Canada's principal federal organization for research on aquatic sciences and fisheries. It was officially created in 1937. In 1973 its staff was transferred to Canada's Department of the Environment. The FRB was officially abolished in 1979. Provided by Wikipedia
