Compendium of Canada's engagement in international environmental agreements and instruments. Agreement on the Conservation of Polar Bears.: En4-381/1-2-2018E-PDF

"The Agreement on the Conservation of Polar Bears came into effect on May 26, 1976 in an effort to protect the species through a coordinated approach by the five polar bear range states (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (now Russia), Norway, Greenland (Denmark), the United States, Canada). The Agreement is important to Canada because a number of the threats to polar bear are best addressed through collaboration amongst Range States (for example sharing of information about best management practices)"--Plain language summary.
