	Case studies on the allocation of transferable quota rights in fisheries
		The northern shrimp fishery began in Eastern Canada in the late 1970's after the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans conducted exploratory cruises that verified the presence of shrimp stocks in the waters off Newfoundland and Labrador.
		The fishery was influenced by the collapse of the Alaskan crab fisheries and the resulting demand for crabmeat from the Eastern Canadian fishery.
		In the event of the collapse of the ITQ programme, the fishery could revert to a competitive fishery in which case the companies or their replacements would be entitled to return to the number of licences held in 1986, prior to implementation of the experimental programme.

	Fisheries and Oceans Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), also referred to as Fisheries and Oceans (Pêches et Océans), is the department within the government of Canada with responsibility for the management and safety of waters under federal jurisdiction.
		The department mandate is largely focused on the conservation and alottment of quotas for salt water fisheries on the Atlantic, Pacific and Arctic coasts of Canada.
		Whereas fisheries management wasn't as important as it became in the latter part of the 20th century, a major responsibility for the Deparment of Marine and Fisheries included the provisioning of rescue stations and facilities at the notorious shipwreck sites of Sable Island and St.

	Canada's Unsustainable 2003-2006 Seal Hunt Plan

	Successes-Department of Fisheries and Oceans
		The Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) has recognized a lack of reliable and accurate fishery monitoring and catch reporting information as a significant impediment to improving resource management effectiveness and delivering on new policies and legislation.
		DFO has developed a working fishery management business model which is being used for everything from straightening out accountabilities and defining information requirements to assessing IT investments and evaluating the impact of new legislation.
		But what is most surprising is the level of understanding and support by senior executives in the department even at the very early stages of the project.

		In both Canada and the United States, there appears to be limited risk of introduction of marine aquarium fish, invertebrates, and plants, because the private marine aquarium trade deals primarily with tropical species.
