Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
First of all, just to put it on your radar screen, I'd like to mention that there's a major problem in the Charlottetown Harbour with a sewage issue. It's a $24-million issue. I don't want you to respond to it here, but please put it on your radar screen. Shellfish in that area are going through a pitiful time because they're shut off so much.
I would also like to make a small comment on the herring seiners and what will take place, understanding that the herring stocks off P.E.I., in Fisherman's Bank and these places, were rich stocks not too many years ago. I know that we have monitoring and that we analyze everything, but the herring is gone. Do you feel that the midshore seiners are going to be able to continue? If they are, the herring stocks will be gone. Could you give me just a short comment on that?
I would also like you to explain to me the rationalization program in the lobster fishery off Prince Edward Island. It's very important to make sure that continues. What is the plan? Will there be more rationalization in area 26A?
