Yes, Mr. Chair.
I wish to move that, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the Standing Committee on Fisheries and Oceans report the following to the House: that the Standing Committee on Fisheries and Oceans fully endorses the harp seal hunt, that it approves of current regulated killing methods, approves that the harvesting of harp seals of the age cohort known as “beaters” and older is fully acceptable and that the Canadian harp seal hunt is humane, responsible and sustainable and should continue for generations to come; that information of the committee’s position, along with the results of the recorded vote, be made immediately available to the public through media advisories prepared by the clerk and distributed throughout Canada.
