		VANCOUVER - The David Suzuki Foundation congratulated the governments of Newfoundland and Labrador and Nunatsiavut today for the release of a joint management plan to protect polar bears in Canada’s eastern Arctic.
		The Canadian government’s failure to protect the species is contrary to the recommendations of its own expert panel on endangered species.
		Listing the polar bear under Newfoundland and Labrador’s Endangered Species at Risk Act is a joint decision on behalf of the Nunatsiavut Government and the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador, and it’s an important development in co-operative agreements by First Nation and provincial governments to protect wildlife in Canada.
