CANADA, SPAIN, AND THE EUROPEAN UNION IN THE TURBOT WAR<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

These are two of the Canada Patrol ships that seized Spanish and Portuguese fishing trawlers, the Cape Roger (left) and the Leonard J. Cowley (right).<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Why did this happen?<\/strong><\/p>\n

One issue between the Spanish and Canadians was whether or not Canada had a legal right to seize foreign vessels outside the 200-nautical mile limit of its authority. Within this area, Canada exercises its full sovereignty; it can make laws and enforce them.<\/p>\n

The Spanish stated that the Estai<\/em> was captured outside Canadian waters in the Grand Banks, or “nose and tail” region. Therefore, they said, the Canadian government had no legal right to seize foreign ships.<\/p>\n

The Canadian government stated that it acted to conserve dwindling stocks of turbot. Find out what turbot<\/a> or Greenland halibut or black halibut look like.<\/p>\n

The main issue was that the Spanish were accused of catching more turbot than they were allowed to by the North Atlantic Fisheries Organization.<\/a> (NAFO) Check out the NAFO website and find out how many countries are members. See if you can find fishing quotas for turbot or Greenland Halibut on their website.<\/p>\n

Canada and the European Union concluded an agreement in early April 1995 that resolved the conflict between Canada and Spain and protected the turbot from over fishing.<\/p>\n

If NAFO is the International Organization that sets fishing quotas, why was the European Union involved in a dispute between Spain and Canada?<\/p>\n
