\"\"Why was the European Union involved in a dispute between Spain and Canada?<\/strong><\/p>\n

On March 9th<\/sup>, 1995, the Canadian Coast Guard seized the Spanish fishing trawler Estai<\/a> off the coast of Newfoundland. The Canadian government accused Spanish ships of overfishing turbot off the Grand Banks. It seized the Estai<\/em> and cut off the nets of other fishing trawlers from Spain and Portugal. NAFO was not directly involved in the dispute.<\/p>\n

So why did Canada negotiate a settlement with the EU instead of with Spain and Portugal?<\/p>\n

To answer that question, we must compare Canada and the EU.<\/p>\n

Dare We Compare? Part 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

To understand why Canada negotiated with the EU rather than with Spain, we need to understand the relationship between the central<\/strong> and regional<\/strong> governments in the European Union.<\/p>\n

The relationship between the regional<\/strong> and central <\/strong>governments in both Canada and the EU is extremely similar. See Lesson 3-Activity 2<\/a> in the politics section.<\/p>\n

IN CANADA<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Canada, there is a central<\/strong> federal government as well as regional<\/strong> provincial and territorial governments. For example, Ontario has a provincial government, while the North-West Territories has a territorial government. If one of these regional<\/strong> governments becomes involved in any kind of dispute<\/strong> with another country, such as the United States or Spain, then the central <\/strong>government steps in to resolve the conflict.\"\"<\/p>\n

Okay, so the national government in Canada takes care of any disputes with the government of other countries.<\/p>\n

What does this have to do with the EU?<\/p>\n
