Preview Managing Fish: Ten Case Studies from Canada's Pacific Coast

Description:
Headlines about fisheries fiascos in Canada are nothing new. What have not made the headlines, however, are management changes that have saved many of Canada's smaller fisheries such as halibut, sablefish, and sea cucumber. These fisheries have changed to a system of individual quotas, in which shares of the catch are granted to the fishermen before they go out in their boats. This allocation system has transformed these fisheries, many of which are now considered models of sustainability, profitability, and safety. This book details the use, and evaluates the effectiveness, of individual quotas in ten fisheries on Canada's Pacific Coast.
