Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Madam Minister.

I'd like to give a special welcome to David Bevan. It's great to have you back at the table, David.

Madam Minister, you said in your opening remarks that one of the pre-eminent events will be the tabling of the new Fisheries Act. Can you confirm to the committee that the fishery is indeed a public resource?
