Mr. Chairman, I am a member of the Community Fisheries Alliance. I'm here today basically speaking as a private citizen, not in my capacity as a member of the alliance. I support the representation that Mr. Etchegary made before the committee. It simply reflects, as I indicated earlier, a genuine concern that given Canada's role with respect to the principal coastal state in the NAFO convention area, Canada can do better in the language of this new convention. I really think that.
