That the government commit to enhancing and maintaining sufficient funding for the marine mammal emergency response programs across the country to respond to threats to marine mammals that are at risk. That would be one.
The other aspect would be to make recommendations—although this has been worked on for years—to continue to encourage the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to look at ecosystem approaches to managing the fisheries, to considering multiple stocks at the same time, and to understanding the relationship between the species as they manage sections of the ocean. It's a difficult undertaking, and they have been working on it. I think the plan could reinforce that as a conservation objective for Canada.
I think it's generally important that the plan include, as Mr. Bates said, objectives for marine and freshwater conservation and not just terrestrial conservation.
