Issues related to fisheries governance are a source of debate and tension between the Indigenous Mi'kmaq people of Nova Scotia and the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) in matters concerning Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar. Within the context of the existing governance regime, this analysis compares the concept of salmon conservation and management from a Mi'kmaq perspective and proposes a collaborative co-existence approach for effective salmon governance in Nova Scotia.
