The reference in the amendment and the subamendment refers to fish stocks that are prescribed by regulations. This would appear to me or possibly could be interpreted as fish stocks that are commercial, recreational, or aboriginal fisheries, which in interpretation is going back to the changes that were made to the act in 2012 and 2014 that referred to HADD, or the removal of HADD, and the activities that could cause “serious harm to fish that are part of a commercial, recreational, or Aboriginal fishery, or to fish that support such a fishery”.
In terms of fish stocks that are under regulation, or major fish stocks, depending on the terminology you use, I interpret it to mean, as we did in the 2012 and 2014 changes, commercial, recreation, or aboriginal fisheries. Is it the intent here that the management of fisheries at sustainable levels would only apply to those types of fisheries?
