For your information, I did attend that site when the causeway was in place, and in the redds that I saw that were dug up, the fish were dead.
There's a public perception here that DFO was negligent in allowing this causeway to be built. The public is rather upset because they see the department as shutting a farmer down, disallowing a farmer from digging and clearing a ditch on his property because they say it's fish habitat, or preventing some other guy from pulling eel grass around his float because somehow or other it's going to damage fish habitat. And yet you guys go ahead and you allow a causeway to be built that destroys probably tens of thousands...or probably even more, if some of the testimony we've heard is correct.
How do you get your mind around that?
