We've talked a bit about rookies here, and Mr. Andrews and I both share that status, I suppose. I'm disappointed. I feel that I'm here on behalf of a lot of Canadians, including my nine-year-old daughter, who want to see that we preserve the species and pass the fisheries on to them and their children. We've heard a lot of debate, a lot of serious discussion, and I've stepped back, as a thinking person, not as a party member, but as someone who feels that we have a treaty. The treaty is going to be enhanced by the provisions that we've heard about, and we therefore have a duty to all Canadians to make sure that Parliament passes the amendment to the treaty. So I'll be voting against this motion.
