A United Voice for
First Nations Fisheries
The First Nations Fisheries Council of British Columbia works to implement the BC First Nations Fisheries Action Plan, a foundation for First Nations to seek increasing shares in the BC fishery and greater involvement in fisheries management and decision making. We work with BC First Nations to protect, reconcile and advance Aboriginal Title and Rights and Treaty Rights related to the health and protection of fish and aquatic resources and access for food, social, cultural and economic purposes.
Our key areas of work
Fisheries Management
The FNFC supports the active engagement of First Nations in management processes and decision making, and to promote the health of aquatic resources and ecosystems for future generations.
Aquaculture
BC First Nations have diverse interests, perspectives and priorities regarding aquaculture, and share a common interest and right to engage in decision making with respect to the regulation and management of aquaculture.
Documents and Reports
Our work is driven by a number of foundational documents and reports that articulate the objectives and direction of BC First Nations in the Pacific fishery
