BFC, in conjunction with other Nunavut stakeholders is working hard to see that Nunavummiut has access to the majority
of fishing allocations in it's adjacent waters. From 2001 - 2006 Nunavut's share of its adjacent fishery resources
has increased from 21% to 44%.
While this has been positive growth we must continue to struggle for equity and fairness in the allocations of
fishery resources in Nunavut's adjacent waters, so that Nunavut receives the same allocations in its adjacent waters that southern jurisdictions share from the fishery in their adjacent waters.
