Yes, I want to echo those comments. I likewise was in the same position of being an adviser to the Government of Newfoundland for a long period of time, during which the Government of Newfoundland took a strong position on this whole question.
It goes back in particular to the administration of Premier Clyde Wells, when he adopted custodial management as the approach that should be taken to NAFO, which essentially amounted to taking NAFO and reforming it totally to the point where it would bear very little relationship to what it is right now. You are looking at an organization now that would need to be much stronger than what we currently have. For this to happen, it has to become a high-level public policy priority of the Government of Canada. This doesn't mean simply going to a NAFO meeting and saying we want to change NAFO; it means we have to go to the contracting states and say that this is something Canada insists upon, that we are prepared to talk about it as a public policy priority, and that it has to be given priority at the highest political level. And it requires a campaign to educate the people of Canada that it's something that absolutely needs to be done.
This is a very major task, but it's fundamentally important for the future, not only of Newfoundland and Labrador but also of the east coast fishery. So I can't help but echo everything Mr. Dean has said.
