I just wanted to start by echoing my colleague's situation. I have to show support for what he's saying. This is an issue that's also going to be happening in the fisheries sector. We're seeing a change in our natural resources, at the base. Fishermen were perceived as not very serious businessmen at one point. They were out there to go and harvest their fish. It was a smaller scale of fishing. This has all become something quite different in the last generation. We are going to be seeing the same issue happening exactly that was described.
When we talk about all these demographic challenges, I think one of the most important solutions to this is the family, and keeping the business in the family. If we can facilitate that transfer, that will be the solution to 50% of the problem. It's going to be the same thing in the fisheries sector. The taxation issues my colleague talked about are going to be the same in other sectors, including the fishery.
I mentioned some changes to the Fisheries Act, and it was a request for more description. Basically, for that aspect, we want to reinforce the 40-year-old policy that has been there, that Roméo LeBlanc enacted, and all the following governments, by the way. The Conservative government, and also the NDP as the opposition, at some point supported this policy; but it's only policy. What we're saying is we have to recognize Supreme Court decisions of the past 20 to 30 years, and include these decisions and these really quite clear policies in the act to reinforce the fact that this is an owner-operator type of industry. It is extremely crucial to this industry to be able to face those challenges that are also coming, and also to maintain the benefits in these communities.
We have an example with western Canada where they haven't adopted these types of policies, where you have communities that are no longer populated because the fishery is gone. We'd like to avoid these problems and not have our harvesters becoming employees in the sector.
The final question was on what aspect again, Mr. Sorbara?
