Fisheries committee  In fact, more agencies could be involved.

Fisheries committee  Thank you very much.

Fisheries committee  Sir, is it only this project or is it the village itself or the whole thing?

Fisheries committee  Very good. Merci.

Fisheries committee  Well, I fully agree with you, and of course you've indicated that not only here but in the Magdalen Islands the problem is safe harbour sites. I certainly agree with what you said. Is there anybody else who would like to comment on any other development or anything else that wou

Fisheries committee  I would hope and expect that Heritage Canada could be very much involved too, and hopefully they will be, because you've put a lot of work into this, and you have a project that would be of great interest to me and to other people across the country.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. First of all, I must tell you I am very pleased to be here with my colleagues in Gaspé. We've heard a lot of problems about small craft harbours over the week. We have yet to hear about a port that had too much money. It's an ongoing problem to convince gov

Fisheries committee  I thank you very much. That barge came from somewhere else before it came to Prince Edward Island, and we didn't have it. That's the problem we're all facing. Also you mentioned--and I'd like you to expand on that--that in Gaspé they do not have wharves to fish out of, or they d

Fisheries committee  That's what we're here for: we want to hear the different opinions.

Fisheries committee  Are you actually saying that the government can't do things as well as the private sector?

Fisheries committee  I thank you very much. Mr. Mallet, I was very interested in your presentation. I would just like you to comment a bit more. Of course, coming from a fisheries community myself, I'm well aware of the lack of money and the problems with DFO. But DFO can only distribute what gove
