Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman and Mr. Brun. I'm pleased you took the time to come here, and I appreciate your presentation.
It's obvious from your presentation that there's been difficulty in the fishery before now, let alone what's taking place now and possibly in the future. I've been following it, of course, in the news. The MFU has been supportive of a reduction in the licences of fishermen across Atlantic Canada, as far as I understand. I see there are four main points in this proposal you have. So I just want to give you the time, and I wish you'd address that on how important it is to take the fleet out of the system. Even if they go broke—and you can explain this—it still leaves them in the system, and they will still fish, keep the pressure on the stocks, and also on the market.
So I'll give you time to elaborate on this.
