Thank you, Pat.
My name is Ken McDonald, Liberal MP for the Avalon riding in the beautiful province of Newfoundland and Labrador. I'm delighted to be here this morning and quite pleased to see a number of people here to present to the committee, as we clue up our salmon study.
Pat was very passionate and very determined to make sure that this study got done. He expressed to us the need and what's happening, especially on the Miramichi River. We're delighted to hear what you have to say about that today to give us some factual information that we can bring back and have a look at.
