The problem with that, John, is that if some fishermen elect to go fishing--and they know what their chances are, because they know what quota is out there--they have to elect to go fishing by January 15, when their licence fees are due and payable. On January 15 they take a chance and say, “This is the quota that's going to be produced, and I'm going to take a chance and go fishing,” hoping the price will rise. Then what happens is that on February 28, DFO issues 92,000 pounds again to Heiltsuk.
This means that the numbers I used to determine what the market was were skewed. DFO didn't give me the information that this was happening when I made my decision.
It's a double-edged sword here.
