Basically, what we are recommending is dedicating additional funds for wild Atlantic salmon. The funds could be for a period of time. We didn't set an amount, but you know what can be available, I guess. Whatever is possible is what we would recommend
We avoided an amount, but it should be a substantial fund that would be available for people doing work on habitat improvement or scientific work, or perhaps for some other programs that would be helpful for both land-based survivorship and at-sea research, or even on-shore research.
One thing I should mention is that there are freshwater concerns, not just at-sea concerns, particularly with the acid rivers in Nova Scotia. That's a major problem for a number of rivers that at one time were extremely productive.
We didn't put a number forward, but that fund could be established and then used for the many partners who work on Atlantic salmon in collaboration with DFO. Perhaps some of the money could be used specifically by DFO and some by the partners. We suggested a scientific forum to ensure that there's collaboration on that work as well.
