Thank you very much, Mr. Chair, and thank you to our witnesses for being here.
Dr. Quinney, I just want to pick up with you. One of the comments you made during your testimony was in regard to the dubious benefit of the no net loss provisions. Could you just comment a little bit about that?
From your standpoint, do you view fish management practices, like stocking and things like that, as something that is very worthwhile, in terms of fish stocks and that type of thing?
Do you see the new section 4.4 in the bill, where the minister can actually work with conservation organizations and have agreements for financial assistance, as being beneficial to organizations like yours?
