Thank you very much.
I'd just like to ask you about the Pacific north coast integrated management plan, which you're well aware of. It was a plan for conservation and economic development of coastal communities and resource management. In fact, it put a number of groups together: environmental groups, first nations groups, governments, and industry.
It was allotted $8.3 million, none of which came from the Government of Canada, as you're aware. I could ask you why the government decided to withdraw from this program: you would not know. But was it done on your department's advice? Did you advise the government to withdraw from this program when it would not cost any money? Is there any process left for this specific north coast integrated management plan to proceed? And if there is a plan, could you explain it to me?
