I will repeat what I said. I know that the chair will be generous about the time; he will not cut me off and will give me a bit more time. I appreciate that.

In your presentation, you said that you were surprised by how quickly NAFO picked up the message or by how receptive it was to that message around 2004-05. I am trying to understand your reaction. Why do you think you were surprised?
