I can perhaps help my colleague with this question.
Mr. Kamp, I think you are looking at this from the wrong angle. If the distance is expanded to one mile and, as my two colleagues mentioned, snow melts like it did last year, this problem is more likely to occur—in other words, someone could be conducting activities on the shore with less than one nautical mile of ice. That seems to make sense.
I am not only thinking about merchants or individuals conducting activities that are unrelated to seal monitoring being within a nautical mile, I am also thinking about hunters.
Everyone knows everyone in those small communities. A hunter may realize that they are within one mile and that their brother-in-law is conducting activities a bit further. They will wonder whether they are allowed to hunt and will be uncomfortable because they will worry about their brother-in-law getting in trouble. They will not be able to go further because there will be no ice.
Mr. Kamp, your interpretation is sort of inverted. Considering that there is sometimes less ice, if the distance is increased to one mile, the probability of something like this happening increases. It does not decrease. I don't understand your reasoning on this. The logic of the situation is inverted. I think something is not quite right here.
