Canada’s oceans envoy meets with QIA in Iqaluit to discuss marine protection
Canada’s new Ocean Envoy Diana Fox Carney, spouse of Prime Minister Mark Carney, talked marine conservation and economic opportunity with Qikiqtani Inuit Association representatives during a 24-hour visit to Iqaluit this week.
“The message I hear, very strongly obviously, is that care for the ocean and the importance of preserving livelihoods and cultural approaches and conservation objectives are critical,” she said during an interview at the Nunavut Fisheries and Marine Training Consortium offices on Tuesday.
