As you're aware, the Atlantic lobster sustainability measures have been ended. A number of fisherman are quite concerned those have ended at a time when the lobster fishery is going through quite a difficult time.
I also understand that they have agreed to put one cent per pound from the fisherman into marketing. How will this be done? What role will the federal government have to play? The federal government has been involved in marketing previously. There is a precedent for this.
I'd just like to add that having attended some fisheries markets around the world, I have seen that fish is not marketed very well at all. I attended a show in Shanghai. The only place I could find a lobster was about two feet down in a freezer in which other products were displayed very well. These were people who were buying products for the retailers. Those other products, meats and other things, were done really well. Is the federal government involved in helping with the marketing of fish, or is it still the same old thing, that it's under provincial jurisdiction? Because the federal government has been involved previously.
Another thing I'd like an answer for is that 15% limit at reference points. I don't have a clue what you're talking about. I'd just like to know, and I need an answer to this too, and I'm scared that he'll cut me off.
