I'm not saying the whole act is perfect, and we don't have nearly as litigious a society, thankfully, in Canada, but there's some specific wording that I submitted on the consultations to the Fisheries Act pre-committee, and I can submit them again.
Very simply, when a stock is overfished or in the critical zone, it requires a rebuilding plan within two years. Then on annual basis the NOAA has to report to Congress on where they are on stopping overfishing and what stocks have been rebuilt. It's very simple, easily publicly accessible, and they do an excellent job of it.
The wording is quite simple. I think it would be very helpful to have that in the act.
