Mr. McGuinness, you say there's a question of somehow dovetailing or harmonizing the approach of the Fisheries Act with that of COSEWIC, but you seem to introduce almost a third approach. It's almost equivalent to traditional aboriginal knowledge, although in this case it wouldn't necessarily be aboriginals. You say that the people on the ground in the fishing industry know a thing or two about how we should be dealing with different species. Is that sort of a third prong that needs to be factored in?
