Thanks, Mr. Chair.
I just want to respond to Mr. Kamp's comments.
You referenced what your government has done for the sealing industry and you brought it into this discussion. I know I can raise it with the minister, and I realize I can ask the minister to provide information. But you brought this up in this committee under this motion and in this discussion, and that's why I asked you specifically what you feel your government has done for the seal industry in the past five years, and why they haven't been effective at promoting the seal industry. That's why I asked you the specific question. In your response I haven't heard any specifics other than you referencing the recent trip to China that the minister has made. If that is essentially the specific answer to what the government has done in the past five years to address the seal industry, that's one of the reasons I can't support this, because it's talking about continuing to develop the markets for the seal industry, and I don't think that has been the case.
