I'll be quick, then.

I would agree with Dave's first point, concerning the interests of the north in the development of these resources and their perspectives.

I'll take char as an example. Char can serve as food; it can also serve as a source of revenue for recreational fisheries. It can also be for commercial fisheries. It's very much a choice at the community level of how they want to develop their resource to bring the maximum benefits to their community.
