Synopsis

Fishing for a Solution provides a detailed, policy-based account of the development of Canada’s fisheries relations with the European Union. It covers over 35 years of this contentious international relationship, from the extension of Canada’s fisheries jurisdiction to 200 miles in 1977 and the creation of the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO) two years later, to the development of a proposed new NAFO Convention in 2007.

Based on the experience of participants from inside the deliberations and negotiations, Fishing for a Solution explores the impact of Canada’s international politics on fisheries negotiations. It offers a unique account of the development of Canada-EU fisheries regulations, blending academic perspectives with insider insights from two former public servants who led the international affairs directorate of Canada’s Department of Fisheries and Oceans.

Fishing for a Solution is essential reading for anyone interested in the workings of Canadian foreign policy, resource policy or in the complexities of managing international relations.
