We do assessments on fishery stocks. This is part of the standard business of Fisheries and Oceans Canada. This is an area that is not within my purview, so forgive me if I don't get too detailed on this. The department does have a very good understanding of tuna stocks in Canadian waters, of the manner in which the harvest is undertaken, and of the science advice that leads to the limits on harvesting in Canadian waters.
So we have that. Now, for the Species at Risk Act, the trigger for Species at Risk Act consideration is a COSEWIC assessment. As my colleague has already mentioned, COSEWIC is independent of government and sets its own agenda. My understanding is that bluefin tuna is on the forward list for COSEWIC consideration, but I don't believe it has yet been assessed.
