摘要：Good governance of Canada's oceans is a provincial as well as a federal affair. This paper is about New Brunswick's recent attempt to delineate the possible maximum spatial extent of its administration to support provincial marine policies and the good governance of its marine resources. Manning et al [1998] state: "good governance is essential for all societies to ensure the provision of public services and the control of behaviours which affect the common good." Good governance of marine spaces, more often than not a common good, is therefore of vital importance and requires the management of a range of information. This includes information on living and non-living resources, bathymetry, spatial extents (boundaries), shoreline changes, marine contaminants, seabed characteristics, water quality, and property rights among other things [Nichols, Monahan and Sutherland, 2000; Nichols and Monahan, 1999; Payoyo, 1994; Lutz and Munasinghe, 1994; Gomes, 1998; Crowe, 2000]. For instance, the governance of a volume of marine space can involve the management of any number of overlapping property rights (figure 1) with each right itself tied to a spatial extent
