Report on the public consultation on the St. Lawrence Estuary Marine Protected Area (MPA) project : Fs49-2/2010E-PDF
In order to ensure long-term protection of marine mammals while maintaining sustainable economic activities, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) plans on creating a Marine Protected Area (MPA) in the St. Lawrence Estuary. In fall 2004 and winter 2005, DFO held public consultations on the St. Lawrence Estuary MPA Project. The consultations allowed the department to hear the opinions of representatives from Aboriginal communities, area resource managers, the public, various private-sector groups—including marine mammal viewing, shipping and fishing concerns—and the scientific community.
