Home Marine Protected Area - Areas of InterestLeading Tickles The people of Leading Tickles and nearby Glovers Harbour have benefited from their proximity to these rich marine resources. The commercial fishery continues to be the basis of the local economy with lobster, crab, and groundfish species currently the most valuable. It is the value of the marine resources that prompted the people of Leading Tickles and Glovers Harbour to approach Fisheries and Oceans Canada to implement measures that will ensure the conservation of the local species and their habitat.
In June 2001, Leading Tickles was officially announced as an Area of Interest (AOI) in the Marine Protected Area Program. Fisheries and Oceans Canada is committed to working with the sponsors and stakeholders in the ongoing development and further evaluation of this site as a potential Marine Protected Area. This site offers Fisheries and Oceans Canada an opportunity to work in partnership with fishers, local interest groups, and other provincial and federal departments towards a common goal of ocean conservation.
