Let me repeat back to you what I think I'm hearing. Each MP in this room is committed to at least one thing, and that is to ensure, to the best of our ability, that our fish stocks survive for future generations. I would guess that not one of us is too happy about having to work with MPs or leaders of other countries where we may have to give up something Canadian.
But at some point, if our priority is to preserve fish stocks for Canadians, for our race, then we may have to do that. And all we've done is restate the pre-existing obvious, which is that, if necessary, if we have to bring someone else in to work with us because we're going to work with them for that overarching goal of preserving our fish stocks, that's something we could have done anyway. We restate it in this treaty. I think ultimately that's where we are and that's why the provision is in there.
Thanks, Mr. Chair.
