I bring this amendment to the floor because I want more activity from the Government of Canada. I think after the China trip we were all disappointed. It's okay to promote and support the sealing industry, but if you do not have markets you have no industry. What we have to do is encourage the government. I would urge the government members on the committee to support this motion, because all it does is encourage the government to become more active in seeking new markets. If we cannot sell the seal pelts there will be no sealing industry.
I could not possibly see anybody interested in the sealing industry not supporting my amendment to this motion.
