About me
Jack Daly is a Marine Scientist who focuses on the intersection between science, policy and society in his support for marine conservation. At Oceana Canada he leads our “Protect Capelin Abundance” campaign which seeks to ensure that capelin, a small forage fish, are managed considering their unique ecological and cultural role in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Prior to joining Oceana Canada, Jack worked for the Atlantic Policy Congress of First Nations Chiefs Secretariat as a Policy Analyst where he worked to support and strengthen efforts on the conservation, protection and restoration of fish and fish habitat for First Nations in Atlantic Canada. Although Jack has worked on many issues affecting marine conservation, he is primarily interested in forage fisheries management, fish habitat conservation and the viability of small-scale fisheries. Jack holds a BSc in Marine Affairs (2017) from the University of Rhode Island and an MA in Geography (2019) from Memorial University.
