Bobby Morrissey at the Fisheries and Oceans Committee

Thank you, Chair.

Madam Commissioner, as you are aware, the situation in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence in 2017 alarmed most Canadians. It alarmed fishermen. Your report identifies that the United States gave Canada until January 22 to address the entanglement of marine mammals as new conditions on Canadian fisher exports to the United States.

Could you elaborate a bit more on what that impact is, on what that condition is?
