DFO are leading the development of Canada’s Blue Economy strategy … and needs your input
NOTE: This opportunity has expired or is an event which has already taken place.
Canada has an opportunity to harness its ocean growth potential by building back better—and bluer. Growing a sustainable blue economy requires a strategy to create jobs in coastal communities while ensuring our oceans remain healthy.
Canada’s Blue Economy
Canadians depend on our oceans for leisure, sustenance, and their livelihood. Our ocean sectors contribute approximately $31.7 billion annually in gross domestic product and account for close to 300,000 jobs.
DFO wants you to have a say in the development of Canada’s Blue Economy Strategy, including those in:
oceans sectors
coastal and Indigenous communities
environmental groups, and
other governments (provincial, territorial, Indigenous, municipal)
On DFO’s dedicated site you can read the engagement paper.
