US EditionNorth Island-Powell River conservative candidate targets Great Bear Sea marine protection plan
- Aaron Gunn, the Conservative Party candidate, opposes the Great Bear Sea Marine Protected Area Network, which was endorsed in February 2023 after nearly two decades of negotiations involving multiple First Nations, the province, and the federal government.
- Gunn claims that the Marine Protected Area network, which includes some no-take zones to protect marine life, is a politically motivated move by former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, intended to restrict fishing.
- Daniel Pauly, an ocean fisheries expert, counters Gunn's claims, stating, 'The notion that marine protected areas don't work and that they harm the fishery and fishes is simply a lie.'
- The Great Bear Sea initiative aims to protect biodiversity and rebuild vulnerable fish stocks while expecting to create 3,000 jobs and 200 enterprises over the next two decades.
