Thank you.
I have to say at the outset that I'm not an expert on that side of the fishery; however, I am of course very familiar with the “no net loss” policy of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. I've been involved in a couple of projects—one in particular—to try to prove out closed-containment salmon farming, a successful project helped by government. I vividly remember that we had to spend a lot of money replanting eelgrass so that the shadow cast by our device was not reducing the productivity of the seabed.
Obviously, I support that approach to things. I think you need to do that, but I have to confess that I can't speak with any authority. In our case, the people who could best answer that sort of question would be someone from the Pacific Salmon Foundation, for example, which, funded by money from the licence fee—in this case, the salmon stamp part of the licence fee—undertakes rehabilitation projects in cooperation with government and private people.
