Report on Canada’s network of marine protected areas / Canadian Council of Fisheries and Aquaculture Ministers (CCFAM) Oceans Task Group.Fs23-610/2017E-PDF

"In 2011, the National Framework for Canada’s Network of Marine Protected Areas was developed for the Canadian Council of Fisheries and Aquaculture Ministers (CCFAM) to outline a strategic direction for the establishment of a national network of marine protected areas (MPAs). In January 2016, CCFAM re-established the Oceans Task Group (OTG) to provide guidance on the National Framework. The purpose of this report is to provide an update on MPA network planning, focusing on progress in five priority bioregions. The report also highlights the contribution of Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) to other effective area-based conservation measures (OEABCM), to MPA networks, and to meeting the Government of Canada’s commitment to national and international marine conservation targets (MCTs)”--Executive summary, p. 2.
