Thanks to our witnesses for coming in today.
I just want to pick up on the line of questioning of my colleague Mr. Choquette.
This question is directed to Mr. Burgess, from DFO, concerning cuts. We've heard from conservation organizations that they don't have the necessary expertise to carry out their activities because of the cuts to DFO, because of the fact they no longer have scientists or technicians on the ground telling them what to do and telling them how to do it. You mentioned that expertise is not only found in DFO, which is true, but it seems as though DFO does offer essential expertise and support to these folks who are on the ground. Could you talk about the other effects, or have you seen this phenomenon happening on the ground as well?
