All right. We're going to run out of time here.
I also want to ask briefly if you can provide a comment on the following. I know that Fisheries and Oceans was really decimated in 2012 with the budget cuts imposed by the Conservatives under their deficit reduction action plan. I was really pleased to see that although the commissioner pointed out there were some deficiencies in research in some key areas, the department does seem to be finally recovering from that.
Are you positioned now to move forward with an aggressive research program on the kind of work that needs to be done to give Canadians the confidence that we will have sustainable fish stocks and healthy populations? I would appreciate any comments on that. I heard Mr. Sopuck make a comment that we've had record Fraser River salmon runs, based on their policies, and yet the science programs were decimated. Do you have any comments on where you are now, to carry forward with the research programs?
