I think the best way to answer that question is to look at.... We've been seeing in the last three years that Nova Scotia's Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture has been expanding salmon aquaculture. There are several lease applications now in and around the province of Nova Scotia, particularly around the southwest shore. For every one of those projects, either the one for St. Mary's Bay, which has been approved...the other ones are still in the approval process. There are community groups similar to ours springing up in every community being considered for this type of industry.
Every community is saying the same thing: they know the importance and the value of Nova Scotia's traditional wild fisheries. For us, it's not only our jobs but also our way of life here. The people living in these coastal communities do not want to see any type of industry come in that could have any potential negative impact on the wild fisheries. We have Mayday Shelburne and Jordan Bay. We have Friends of Shelburne Harbour in Shelburne. We have citizens against open-net salmon aquaculture on the eastern shore. We have Friends of Port Mouton Bay and we have the St. Mary's Bay Coastal Alliance. Currently, all those areas are being targeted for open-net salmon aquaculture. If anything, the concern within the province is growing, and everybody has the same feeling: we don't think this type of industry is going to be viable for us.
