Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
As you know, I'm not a regular at this committee, but it seems to me that this issue of the eel grass up in James Bay is not a political event; it's a scientific problem that seems to be caused up there, and I don't think, therefore, the resolution to the problem is going to be found around this committee table.
It would seem to me therefore much more appropriate that the committee call for a scientific study to be brought to this committee, once they have the answers and some recommendations and know exactly what's going on. I don't think bringing some people from James Bay down here to discuss a problem that's up there is going to shed an awful lot of light on it. It's not that I wouldn't want to find out what's going on, but I don't think this is the way to do it.
