Pacific Region

The Pacific Region of Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) includes British Columbia and the Yukon. We are committed to working with stakeholders and First Nations in our efforts to protect the species at risk in our region.

Pacific Region success stories include:

• Recovering Sea Otters in British Columbia
• A Three Year Multi-Country DFO Investigation Around Threatened Northern Abalone Concludes Successfully
• Deterring Abalone Poachers with Stiff Penalties
• A New Generation of White Sturgeon Stewards

Public Consultations:

An important part of the Species at Risk Act (SARA) is consulting with stakeholders and First Nations to solicit their opinions and feedback. Please consult the Pacific Region Public Consultations page to find out about current consultations in our region and how you can get involved.
