La gestion des peches maritimes au Canada

In just 25 years, Canada's marine fisheries have gone from underdevelopment to overcapacity. Major changes in their management, including regulatory interventions (such as Total Allowable Catches, allocation of access, limited entry licensing and individual quotas) have not solved the various problems which plague the fisheries sector. These problems are addressed in chapters on the management of common property, objectives of fisheries management, techniques of resource and habitat management, jurisdictional context, the scientific advisory process in relation to fisheries research, and the reconciliation of competing interests. This publication offers a comprehensive overview of how Canada's marine fisheries have been managed in recent decades.
