A cost‐benefit analysis ‐ proposed Tuvaijuittuq marine protected area.: Fs134-23/2019E-PDF

"The proposed Tuvaijuittuq MPA is considered globally, nationally and regionally unique due to the presence of multi‐year pack ice and is believed to be a critically important habitat for Arctic under‐ice communities. It may also play an important role for ice‐dependent species (such as beluga, narwhal, walrus, seals, and polar bears). This area represents a portion of the Canadian High Arctic projected to retain multi‐year ice in the long term and will likely become an important refuge for ice‐associated biota as sea ice loss continues throughout the Arctic due to climate change. … The cost benefit analysis (CBA) provides an analysis of the potential socio‐economic impacts associated with the proposed Marine Protected Area (MPA) Ministerial Order regulations"--Executive summary, page 4.
