Technical Change, price arbitrage and price flexibility; the case of Lobster holding in Québec compared to Eastern Canada

Creator:: Belhabib, Dyhia and Wilson, James R.
Abstract:: Lobster (Homarus americanus) ranks first in Canada’s fisheries, but Quebec lobster represents only 6% of eastern Canada landings.

A Comparative Study of Salmon Aquaculture Site Attribution by Public Agencies in Eastern Canada and, Maine, USA (Hoop Jumping vs. Opportunity Cost pricing)

Creator:: Boudribila, Youssef and Wilson, James R.
Abstract:: We focus on problems of access to marine sites for aquaculture in different countries, particularly in Maine, U.S.A. and Canada. The main question examined is how public natural goods (marine space) are allocated for aquaculture activities. Using ideas from law and economics, as well as institutional economics, we looked at...

Micro-economic Efficiencies and Macro-economic Inefficiencies: Theoretical Reflections on Renewable Resource Policies in Very Poor Countries

Creator:: Wilson, James R. and Boncoeur, Jean
Abstract:: Economists in developed countries having specific institutional and macroeconomic conditions have been the major contributors to fisheries economics theory and policy. Whereas the theory and the policies may be appropriate in certain circumstances for developing countries, it is not necessarily true that the two major recommendations of fisheries theory, capacity...

The Bio-Economics of Sea Turtle Use in Mexico: History of Exploitation and Conservation Policies for the Olive Ridly (Lepidochelys olivacea)

Creator:: Trinidad, Hector and Wilson, James
Abstract:: Illegal behavior among fishermen is often explained using models that abstract from the moral and the political realm. These same models may also abstract from the institutional realities of law making and the behavioral realities of small businesses and families. Illegal behavior may be a result of situations where policy...

Can Self-thinning Be Used as a Production Control Mechanism? The Case of Mussel Farming in Quebec

Creator:: Bilodeau, Francis, Wilson, James R., and Fréchette, Marcel
Abstract:: A bio-economic model, based on Faustmann rotation, was developed to analyze the relevance of removing thinning activities which are part of the dominant technology used in blue mussel production in Canada. Removing these density control activities (thinning) seemed a profitable option to producers. It was thought that this collector line...

Technological Switching in the Fisheries Sector

Creator:: Le Floc'h, Pascal, Daurès, Fabienne, and Wilson, James
Abstract:: Technological switching and re-switching has been the subject of debates within economics. Under assumptions of malleable capital in economies with multiple sectors, the wage-rent envelope can show multiple re-switching. The interest of technological change and switching behavior for fisheries economists and managers stems from the fact that the control of...

Changing Aboriginal Policy in Canada, and the Effects on Scale and Capacity Use in the Commercial Fisheries of Quebec

Creator:: Wilson, James, Wilson, Melissa, Urli, Bruno, and ben Hammouda, Abdallah
Abstract:: The efficiency analysis literature has long acknowledged the difference between program/policy effects and relative efficiency effects. The use of incentive compatible policy has been an important research agenda for fisheries economists, and Canada uses an array of policies and regulatory tools to fulfill the objectives of their Fisheries Act. One...
