Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Gentlemen, it's a pleasure to have you here with us today. My name is Robert Chisholm. I'm a member of Parliament from Nova Scotia.
This committee is excited about exploring the fisheries in the north and the impact of pressures on the fishery in the north. We're very interested in the report that was done on the Yukon fishery in 2010. I'm pleased to have the opportunity to pursue some of the issues that you raise.
Maybe to begin, I thought your report was quite instructive. It talks about moving to ecosystem-based and watershed-based management in order to deal with your fishery. Would you explain that to some degree and also talk to me a little bit about the relationship with DFO in that regard?
