I think that is a question that we in the department wrestled with when I was last here in 1998, and we did come out with a priority for chinook and coho. It is an ongoing discussion, and obviously it's a very sensitive area that requires everybody at the table to figure out where we go. I think that kind of dialogue does have to unfold, but the point you're making is valid, and as I say, I think on the east coast we really do underutilize the good living for people through that approach.
As the way ahead unfolds, on the Pacific salmon, and so on, those kinds of considerations are going to have to be brought to the table. But it always is, as you're well aware, that there are a whole bunch of interests, and the minister has to try to balance those interests as best he can.
In relation to the volunteer point—and I was going to make this point when we got the question the first time—we've done some anecdotal work, if you can call it that, in Newfoundland and Labrador. But the reality is that where we spend not very much money and we don't spend enough money is in support of streamkeepers and education and all that kind of stuff.
But in Newfoundland we recently spent some money, I think last year, supporting that. The impact of that investment on reducing poaching in particular rivers where we did that was much more significant than having enforcement. When people understand it, when they're engaged in it and take ownership of it, they don't poach, because they understand what the significance of it is. So it actually has an enforcement ramification.
In terms of our investments in this, though, you mentioned one example, that the minister did direct a $10-million investment over the next three years in the Fraser basin initiative, which is a coming together of all stakeholders and volunteers. It's led by Rick Hansen. It has the Fraser Basin Council involved in that. So we are trying, wherever opportunities arise within the art of the possible, to work with some of these really excellent groups.
