This is the last time probably I'll be before your committee, but let me say this to you. The last time I sat here it was with a bunch of people from Newfoundland who objected to the Canadian government putting in the NAFO agreement this loophole that would allow them re-entry inside 200 miles. We went to the House of Commons fisheries committee and to the Senate committee and we made our presentation to them. I have to say your predecessors were alarmed. We had experts on it. Incidentally, one of our advisers was a negotiator of Canadian fisheries at the UN. It was proven to them that this was really a serious matter. That was the House committee. We later met with the Senate committee, and both agreed that this was a serious matter.
You know what happened? They both pressured the House to have a four-hour debate, which they did, and then voted on these amendments, on whether they should be accepted or not. The House voted 147 to 142 against the amendments. Twenty-four hours later, the Prime Minister and the Minister of Fisheries contacted NAFO and ratified the amendments, so I wish you all the luck in the world.
