Thank you, Mr. Chair, and welcome back.
I just want to make a couple of points of clarification, one being that Mr. Warawa is correct that Canada ratified the Kyoto Protocol in 2002, but it only came into force on September 30, 2004, when Russia finally ratified it. Also, I would point out as a point of information that the Kyoto Protocol was the outgrowth of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which was signed by the Conservative government in 1992. But I digress.
I would like to speak a bit about your Fisheries and Oceans chapter. As I understand it--and these are sort of layman's terms--there is no comprehensive database of fish habitat in Canada. Is this an impossible task? Is this like nailing mercury to a wall? Is this something that we can never really get a grip on, or is it feasible?
