Okay, folks, let's start again this afternoon. Once again, we're embarking on a study of northern cod and the relevant facts thereon.
We have our next group of witnesses. This will be the third part of the day.
Just as a reminder to everyone watching from the gallery, we are here today, we are in Port De Grave tomorrow, and we will be on beautiful Fogo Island on Wednesday. I call it “beautiful” because I'm biased; it's in my riding. What can you say? Even with my colleagues from British Columbia here, I can confidently say that.
Before we get to the witnesses, there is a quick point that I thought I'd discuss with us here, and of course publicly. Derek Butler, the president of the Association of Seafood Processors, suggested that we should visit Iceland and Norway. I don't think we have the budget for that, but we are currently doing some work here to see whether we could have someone from Iceland and/or Norway be part of this study and talk about their fishery.
Can I get a consensus here that we should go ahead and do that? I know we're not the full committee, but...
Mr. Doherty?
