“…Plummer and Stacey (2000) extended application of the management model by using it as a relative guide for evaluation. Similar application is made here to examine the expression of sustainability in policies advanced by three Canadian natural resource management agencies.…”

“…The second stage involved the development of a profile of exhibited characteristics (indicators) of each respective strategy. The relative scale utilized by Plummer and Stacey (2000) was adapted and employed to create the profiles. If a sustainability element is not expressed within a particular managerial element the symbol * is placed in the quadrant.…”

“…The outcome of qualitative analysis is the development of a profile of the sustainability elements exhibited. Consistent with the approach by Plummer and Stacey (2000), the intensity with which the institution has expressed the sustainability element is gauged using a relative scale as described in the preceding section. Table 4 provides a summary of the analysis.…”

The international call for sustainable development prompted the Canadian government to mandate the creation of sustainable development strategies by federal agencies. These strategies, now in their second generation, represent the expression of sustainable development from a policy perspective, and require careful consideration. A workable matrix combines key elements of sustainable development with fundamental management element guides. This matrix is used to assess the sustainability strategies of three federal government departments concerned with Canada's natural resources. Examination reveals considerable changes in sustainable development strategies regarding processes, mechanisms and structures. Attention is also drawn to governance structures, community involvement and diversity in decision-making. Although not a panacea, these second generation strategies more fully reflect elements associated with sustainable development. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.

“…Context to the case of the Lower St John River is shaped by the physical attributes of the resource (river and riparian system) and property rights associated with water resources. Water resource management in Canada is complex and occurs through various government agencies (federal, provincial, local) as well as non-governmental organisations (Mitchell & Shrubsole, 1994;Plummer & Stacey, 2000). Despite the considerable size of the drainage basin, focus on the lower portion of the St John River concentrates attention to a sub-watershed scale.…”

“…Assessment frameworks have also been effectively incorporated into evaluative and policy research. Plummer and Stacey (2000) used an assessment framework to qualitatively gauge the expression of sustainability in community-based water resource management organisations. More recently, Plummer (2006) employed an assessment matrix in his comparative evaluation of sustainability strategies (generation one and two) of three Canadian resource agencies.…”

Working together' is increasingly advanced as a logical strategy to pursue naturebased tourism because it embraces multiple benefit claims to the natural environment. This paper examines terminology within the collaborative rubric (partnerships, collaboration and co-management) and develops an assessment framework consisting of five elements. Together the elements enhance conceptual precision and direct attention to aspects requiring careful consideration by those pursuing such innovative approaches. The proposed assessment framework is subsequently applied to a tourism initiative in the lower portion of the St John River in New Brunswick to illustrate the potential utility of the framework. Systematic application of the framework confirms that considerable specificity is possible when addressing nature-based tourism initiatives. Closing reflections highlight benefits of this discernment, the functionality of the framework and potential implications for nature-based tourism programmes and policies.
