What you are saying is true. As a matter of fact, no change had been made to the rules for more than 25 years. Moreover, across Canada, the fishing industry went through big changes.
This is one of the big problems we are facing today. The situation may be different if amendments had been put forward at the time the situation was changing in the fishing industry across Canada.
Now, the rules remained the same for 25 or 30 years. We went through many changes and we know that accidents do happen. It is what we are analyzing now, to give us the means to prevent such a high accident rate from reoccurring. This is what we want to change.
