Canada's Oceans Policy Framework: An Overview
The myth of national ocean policymaking is that there is a single path, structure, or instrument within which ocean policy is considered, adopted, implemented, and, where necessary, enforced. The reality is that a State and its citizens interact with the oceans in a multitude of different manners that defy and undermine an easy definition of national ocean policymaking as an explanation of that relationship. Within this premise, this article focuses on four matters respecting the framework of Canada's oceans policymaking: (a) where is Canada's oceans space in the Arctic, Atlantic, and Pacific Oceans and the extent of jurisdiction that Canada can exercise over its adjacent ocean areas; (b) what is the constitutional context for oceans policymaking in Canada; (c) how are fisheries, hydrocarbons, and shipping legislatively and administratively managed; and (d) the 1996 Oceans Act and integrated ocean management.
