A Wildlife Policy for Canada

En adoptant cette politique, les ministres de l'Environnement des provinces/territoires et du gouvernement fédéral ont pris l'engagement d'y donner suite. Le premier rapport soumis par le gouvernement du Canada résume l'état actuel des activités fédérales dans le domaine de la conservation des espèces sauvages et de leurs habitats et permet de se faire une idée de la façon dont les ressources fauniques sont gérées.

The Subjugation of Canadian Wildlife
Hardly a day goes by without news of the extinction or endangerment of yet another animal species, followed by urgent but largely unheeded calls for action. An eloquent denunciation of the failures of Canada's government and society to protect wildlife from human exploitation, Max Foran's The Subjugation of Canadian Wildlife argues that a root cause of wildlife depletions and habitat loss is the culturally ingrained beliefs that underpin management practices and policies. Tracing the evolution of the highly contestable assumptions that define the human–wildlife relationship, Foran stresses the price wild animals pay for human self-interest. Using several examples of government oversight at...
