Mr. McGuinness, the seal issue is also a trade issue. It affects harvesters and processors in eastern Canada. Can I ask you, then, why do you think the Europeans asked for it? What is the basis on which the European Union particularly, as holder of the pen, wanted this special provision to allow NAFO to manage inside 200 miles?
If we know that the regulatory legal environment already exists in Canada to allow for cooperative science-based activities to occur in Canadian waters, that other mechanisms exist, that we've surrendered Canadian sovereignty on the banks, on the nose and the tail, to allow for protection of corals and sponges and other sedentary species, why do you suspect that Europe in particular wanted that specific provision to allow for management inside 200 miles?
