No, “integrated management” is a term that's used in the oceans directorate for involving all stakeholders in planning ocean uses. So the ESSIM, eastern Scotian Shelf integrated management, that I referred to is the model or the pilot that's the furthest ahead. There's the Placentia Bay–Grand Banks one, which we were also participating in. There are a whole number of elements in producing this, including an ecosystem overview, identifying significant biological and ecological areas. Getting down to the path where ESSIM is but the Grand Banks one isn't means asking, what do we do with all this knowledge, and how do we change our management? Put all that in the context; hence the “integrated” part of “all stakeholders”. That's what I was referring to. So we recognize that.
The way we work globally, around the world, is we would facilitate or convene this integrated approach if it didn't exist here. Actually, it's a success, coming out of the Oceans Act and the oceans directorate, that we have integrated management. It's a model that WWF endorses; hence we've put a lot of our resources to try to make that work. The day the government gives up on it would be a sad time.
So we want to really make sure it's well supported, and all indications are the minister will sign off on the eastern Scotian Shelf plan. And remember, it's a pilot for all of Canada, so it's really crucial that we get the first one right and the minister does sign off on it. That's what we need to see.
