Thank you.
Welcome to all the gentlemen here today. I appreciate your contribution to the event last night. It was a good one. To coin a phrase that's being used in the chamber these days, I want to welcome my fisheries minister from New Brunswick. Rick Doucet, I'm glad you're here.
I want to focus on three major areas: working together as governments, industry involvement, and rationalization. With respect to the first area, Rick talked about changing from processing for inventory to processing for markets. Given the $75 million that is now out there, can you talk about some of the key initiatives that will allow your province to transform the industry from processing for inventory? What do we need to do to get the industry involved so that we can move ahead together? I'm particularly interested in the latent licensing you talked about for Quebec and Newfoundland. Do we have the same type of latent licensing in P.E.I. and New Brunswick? How many of them are out there? How long have they been latent licensed? What's going to happen with those?
