Thank you.

The next and more difficult issue I want to talk about is the international aspect of this and UNCLOS. I'm going to deal with it in as non-legal way as I can, by talking about the Canada Shipping Act.

On the face of it, does the Canada Shipping Act apply to foreign vessels that would otherwise be subject to international law and the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea?

See context to find out what was said next.
