I take from this that the concerns of the 120 signatories to a letter who made representation to you last month didn't have any impact.
The second part of my question was about when those new regulations will come into force. I'm going to ask that somebody take note of that. I'm going to ask you another question, again trying to use my time wisely.
The second question I want to ask you has to do with DFO deciding to open the herring fishery both last year and this year in the territories of the Nuu-chah-nulth, Haida Gwaii, and the Heiltsuk first nations. In the face of and as a result of their opposition to the decision to open that fishery, there was some real conflict pending and much concern on the west coast over the way this was being handled. I wonder whether you could, please, give us some assurance that your department is working with those first nations—as we speak, in effect—to make sure this doesn't happen again next year.
