I would put it this way. In lobster, we have over 9,000 licence-holders who would have thousands of crew members, so I think that's about 30,000 harvesters, in literally hundreds of communities. If we don't have fishing revenue in hundreds and hundreds of communities, we don't have small communities, and that's what is really the lifeblood of the east coast. On the processing side, there are probably 30,000 people who work in processing plants that are also live shipping facilities. It's absolutely the lifeblood of the east coast. If we don't have the fishing industry, we don't really have an east coast.
