I think it all comes back to science, to knowing what's there and what effect one has on the other.
Mr. Efford just showed me a picture of what was dinner for a codfish. It was probably 10 or 12 female snow crab.
We need to make sure the ecosystem is balanced. I guess that would mean more surveys and stronger science. We just came out of a debate here in this province around shrimp in SFA 6, that area, and one of the things in that debate was that we had to convince the federal government to do a yearly commitment to a full stock assessment.
We can never have too much science. The investment in science is going to be crucial if we wish to maintain a solid fishery with all components, whether it be crab, shrimp, cod, capelin, turbot, or other species in the water. We need a strong commitment to science.
