Lobster boat diplomacy: the Canada-US grey zone

Author

  • Cook, Beverly

Abstract

There remain overlapping claims of jurisdiction by Canada and the US related to the 1984 Gulf of Maine boundary decision. The disputed territory, known as the grey zone, is a rich lobster fishing area and a simmering dispute between Canadian and US lobster fishers finally erupted here in August 2002. Jurisdictional and management issues remain unresolved. Stock conservation and associated socioeconomic impacts are concerns.
