Good.
Have you had discussions with fisheries groups? I've talked to 30-some fisheries groups across Canada, and not one of them.... And I'm not saying you're going to do it. I pray to God that you do not. I also wonder, if it's right to ask, what view your department has on owner-operator policy. Does that have any influence on what takes place?
If you decide to make this move, will you allow this committee to travel through Atlantic Canada and talk to fisheries groups? Would you advise that? I am concerned about the groups you have talked to. I'm not saying you didn't, but have you talked to fisheries organizations, or can you give us a fisheries organization that would support this? If they do not support it, do you believe that will kill it? Are the large corporations deciding what's going to take place? I beg of you, because of what will happen where I live and the people I represent, it's so vitally important that if this is removed a large portion of it will be gone.
I would like to leave those questions with you. I know that you care. Please make the decision yourself and think of the human beings who will be hurt so much if you take it away from them.
