Yes, I appreciate that a lot of volunteer work is being done. I read some of the transcripts of the committee, and I was very impressed by that. I also saw there was volunteer burnout.
My thinking concerning ownership of the small fishing harbours, hopefully, at a consolidated level--and this would be a long-term view of some consolidation--is that if I were on a board of directors for an organization, I think I'd want to have more say and control over the long-term development and capital plans of that organization. If at all possible, if I were a large enough organization, then I could go to get some funding outside of federal or provincial levels, and that's an airport model.
So I think if it is at all possible--it may not be possible with the very small craft harbours--and then if you have local ownership, you can raise local funds and get away from the tyranny of lack of capital financing that airports used to see in the past. Now we see that for airports they can raise money and get more revenues, and they're modernizing Canadian airports.
