No, I've never had difficulty getting hold of companies. It's a relatively complex issue. Take the RAMP data. It is available to Environment Canada, DFO, and the companies. They'll provide you with a summary of the data. But if you want to get the raw data and look at it, a lot of it isn't in electronic format. This means you have to spend six months putting it into an electronic format before you can look at it. A lot has to do with getting the data in a timely fashion in a form you can use. That's part of it.
