dc.description.abstract "The same attitudes, capitalist values and kinds of industrial technologies that are destroying the forests of Canada are also at work in the fishery, but the visible consequences have proceeded much further. The Northern Cod on the East Coast has been fished to commercial extinction. In July of 1992, a 2-year moratorium (since extended) was placed on this fishery. The above quotations, relating to the West Coast 1994 Fraser River sockeye runs, show the same commercial extinction paradigm unfolding. Canada pursues economics-driven conservation policies. Individual, commercially valuable fish species, are managed to their maximum human/corporate exploitation. Then, if environmental factors change or there are major errors in management or policy decisions, and if the rules are flouted or manipulated by participants in the commercial fishery, there is ecological and economic disaster." en_US
