Yes, I would have to agree with that. We're not doing our own research. We're just the village. But we have been reading the research out there and looking at any evidence we can find. I've certainly talked with researchers. I've talked with representatives of the fish farms and part of the Nootka Sound Watershed Society, of which one of the fish farms is a member. I've seen their presentations, and we've drawn our own conclusions based on all that information. In my submission I did list several research papers, which seem to draw the conclusion that sea lice seem to be the main issue with the wild fish decline in these areas.
