▼ It is claimed that private property rights in carbon assets will both reduce carbon emissions and will increase investment in sequestration activities, thereby mitigating the effects of or solving climate change. Supposedly, property rights acting in a carbon market will assist emitters in transitioning to lower-emissions technology while creating an incentive for land managers to engage in rights-creating sequestration activities. This thesis focuses on biological sequestration and shows that property rights in carbon assets will hinder, rather than facilitate, carbon policy success. This thesis begins with an examination of whether it is appropriate to assign property rights to a natural cycle. Because of the physical, legal, and moral inability to exclude others from the carbon cycle, this thesis rejects private property rights in carbon assets, which represent a portion of the carbon cycle. However, as regulators desire to actively manage the carbon cycle, the common justifications of private property are reviewed to determine whether any of these property theories can justify the creation of private property in carbon assets. Private property rights in carbon assets are rejected as the rights, and the consequences of the rights, are contrary to society’s social, legal, administrative, and environmental goals. Ultimately, carbon policies are more likely to be successful when carbon assets are held publicly rather than privately. The conclusion of this thesis is significant as numerous governments have considered, or are considering, the creation of private property rights in carbon assets. Further, it is not evident that an academic analysis has previously been undertaken to determine whether creating property rights in the carbon cycle is appropriate or whether a property approach will reduce atmospheric carbon concentrations. The analysis in this thesis can play a role in creating successful and sustainable carbon policies. Advisors/Committee Members: Farnese, Patricia, Bowden, Marie-Ann, Phillipson, Martin.

▼ Saskatchewan’s lentil producers are positively impacted when their temporary competitive advantage in the industry, which in part is derived from high yielding Saskatchewan-bred lentil varieties, is eroded though ineffective intellectual property (IP) protection. The ineffective IP protection occurs due to the inconsistency in the enforcement of policies and laws across countries, making it difficult to protect IP when exporting products. Additionally, intellectual property protection of lentils is inefficient is when viable seeds are obtained by other countries through the export of whole seeds. This is because lentils are an open pollinated crop and intellectual property cannot be protected through hybrid seed technology. This is an issue because the Canadian red lentil (CRL) varieties have been bred for the Saskatchewan climate, but are well suited to grow in countries that have similar climates, and therefore are well adapted to large regions of Russia and Kazakhstan. The similarity in growing conditions, coupled with the lack of IP protection for the CRL varieties makes it possible for Russia and Kazakhstan to use imported Saskatchewan bred lentil varieties to grow in their lentil industry. When Russia and Kazakhstan grow the CRL varieties it directly competes with Saskatchewan’s production in the world market, eroding the producer surplus of Saskatchewan producers. This thesis estimates the economic benefit to Canadian growers of restricting access to Canadian varieties through a value chain that genetically protects the CRL varieties by exporting only de-hulled red lentils. A dynamic, multi-country, partial equilibrium model is used to estimate the effects de-hulling CRL varieties before export will have on the Canadian lentil industry. This model determines the effects that de-hulling CRL's will have on Canadian lentil producer's welfare by comparing the results from when there is genetic protection (GP) for the CRL varieties before they are export and then there is no genetic protection (noGP) for the CRL varieties. In my thesis, I examine four potential scenarios for the future lentil production in Russia and Kazakhstan over the next twenty years. The four growth scenarios that are examined for Russia and Kazakhstan’s lentil industries range from no convergence to full convergence. No convergence is when Russia and Kazakhstan continue producing lentils with their 2011 lentil hectares until 2034. Full convergence is when both countries converge to the Canadian lentil industry’s ratio of lentil hectares to spring wheat hectares. The empirical model results show that producer surplus gained by Canadian lentil producers are increased when Canadian firms use GP to protect the intellectual property rights (IPR) of new CRL varieties. My results show that lentil prices in the global market will be modestly higher when there is GP for lentils versus when there is noGP for lentils over the next twenty years. The difference in the prices of the noGP case and the GP case gets larger as Russia and Kazakhstan go… Advisors/Committee Members: Gray, Richard S., Micheels, Eric T., McDonald, Jill, Farnese, Patricia.

▼ Emerging diseases in Canada threaten the wellbeing of humans, domestic and farmed animals, as well as wildlife. Canada, like many nations, struggles to manage diseases that cross boundaries, both geographically and in species. This has led to a heavy reliance on governance networks to coordinate the knowledge and resources needed to develop management approaches. As governance networks often exist in an informal or ad hoc capacity and at the same time attempt to solve complex or expansive policy problems beyond the ability of any one agency, the issue of network resilience is examined to explore how networks and their membership can mitigate network failure. Through two case studies of wildlife disease incidents in Canada (Chronic wasting disease and White nose syndrome), I examine how the wildlife health network in Canada developed its disease management approaches as well as recommendations to provincial and federal governments. Using primary sources, I evaluate the network’s activities, attitudes and behaviours to assess if characteristics associated with resilience (slack in resources, adaptive capacity and situation awareness) are present and if they contribute to positive outcomes. Greater presence of resilient characteristics- slack in resources, adaptive capacity and situation awareness-were present in the case with better policy outcomes, however, the analysis reveals that the concept of resilience is limited as a useful tool when examined in the broader context. Governance networks are often limited by the structural constraints of their environment, including scarce resources and a lack of self-determination. In this network, an additional factors exists to complicate analysis: disease type and severity. The relative ease with which an emerging disease can be understood and management appears to contribute significantly to the network’s success.

▼ Natural health products (NHP) have been experiencing strong growth in consumer demand, both domestically and in foreign markets. The nature of NHP and the small sector of the population that used them in the past, has allowed them to “slip between the cracks” of regulatory bodies. As NHPs have become mainstream and have been marketed and distributed through major agri-food supply chains, governments have had to become more active regulators. New Natural Health Product Regulations came into force in Canada on January 1, 2004 to regulate these product which had been generally regulated under the Food and Drug Act. Canada is not alone in its regulatory reform and other countries have begun to create new and often more rigorous regulations for NHP. It as often the case that domestic regulations have unintended and sometimes trade restricting side effects. The current restructuring and focus on regulations of NHP, and the potential importance of trade within this sector, suggests that a better understanding of the non-tariff barriers that may arise could be important for the development of the industry in Canada and elsewhere. Analysis of trade effects arising from standards and regulations is not an easy task. Non-tariff barriers to trade tend to have product-specific effects making it difficult to find general results. Using a review of current approaches to address technical barriers, an analytical framework has been selected and applied to case studies. The cases studies examined the welfare effects of regulations as they pertain to three products with different characteristics; flax omega-3 supplement, elk velvet, and a probiotic supplement. The case studies identified a range of non-tariff barriers arising from international regulatory divergence. The results suggest that trade barriers are likely to arise in the NHP industry and that they will differ from product to product. As a result, there is unlikely to be a single policy prescription that will facilitate the removal of barriers to international market access. Suggestions are made as to how barriers could be eliminated or reduced through formal trade negotiations or less formal bilateral discussions.
