I want to go back to another comment you made with reference to support for DFO science. Out of close to 90 surveys in the Atlantic zone between 2001 and 2006, only two were not done.
I think that's a pretty good record; that's pretty good business, if that's a fact. I would think the newspaper article was probably a result of the tabling of Ms. Fraser's report. When we look at the case study, it refers to how the science sector has been unable to complete many of its multi-species surveys because of problems with the vessels. Not able to complete many of their surveys—I wouldn't think that two would be referred to as many.
I'm just seeing the divide between what we're seeing in the report and then further down in the case study as well. The vessel programs have significantly affected ongoing research; it's impossible to complete surveys. That's strong wording in the AG's report, but it doesn't mesh with what we're seeing as facts.
Perhaps you could each shed some light on it.
