2005-2010 Strategic Plan: Our Waters, Our Future
Print version: HTML | PDF (660 KB)
The Strategic Plan at a Glance
Our Waters, Our Future is based on a sensible approach to doing business. That means using an integrated approach to planning that balances our commitments (what we must and want to do) with our available resources (what we can do).
Our Story
The work of Fisheries and Oceans Canada is important to Canadians. As a department, we ensure Canada's fisheries, freshwater and oceans are sustainable resources for the benefit of generations to come. We do this by keeping our oceans and freshwater healthy and full of aquatic life, by managing fisheries to be sustainable resources, and by maintaining the waterways so they are safe and accessible for the use of mariners and all Canadians. Our work also reflects key Government of Canada commitments like the Oceans Action Plan and delivering on federal responsibilities to Aboriginal communities.
