Fisheries and Ocean Canada is responsible for Canada's economic, ecological, and scientific interests in oceans and inland waters. Information about fish habitat and ocean management can be found in the Canadian Waters Section. The Science section offers information about research programs on aquatic animal health, invasive species, aquaculture, impact of offshore gas and oil productions, hydrographic surveys, oceanography and climate, and marine environmental data. The Fisheries and Aquaculture Management section features pieces on the rationale for Canada's controversial seal hunt. Reports are available on Canada's Oceans Action Plan, regulation of commercial fishing, and marine protected areas. Educational materials on important fish stocks and waterfront stewardship, as well as information on marine services and nautical maps and charts can also be found here.
