I would say that the most transferable measures are those that bring all of the stakeholders to the table. The problem we are having in Quebec right now is that people aren't cooperating because it penalizes them to do so, and so they are disregarded. They aren't even taken into account. I'll give you an example.
The Association des pêcheurs du lac Saint-Pierre offered to help with at least three activities, surveying stock numbers, assisting scientists with sampling, and reducing the population of cormorants. The last service we offered for free, whether in terms of time or money.
Every single time, we were brushed aside and told that we weren't needed. We were also told that we needed a permit if we wanted to conduct a study and that we wouldn't be given one. Those certainly aren't the right conditions to replicate Lake Erie's successful results.
Lake Erie has become a fisher's paradise. It's impossible for us to measure the economic spinoff of the lake's revival given that we don't have the local data, but one thing is certain, the people who go there are enamoured with the area when they come back.
