Susanna Fuller is a senior projects manager at Oceans North, a non-government organization that supports healthy communities and healthy oceans. She has been involved with coastal policy for several decades.
In an op-ed in the Chronicle Heraldon February 1, 2019 she offers her perspective on some of the questions that have surfaced about DFO’s proposed Eastern Shore Islands Marine Protective Area.
In discussing how DFO might persuade its opponents, she writes that in other places, one of the keys to moving forward was “getting government to relinquish some of its power.” But as she notes elsewhere, one of the bigger problems is “a fundamental distrust of government.”
