Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to thank all the witnesses for being here to provide their testimony on this important review of the Fisheries Act.
I'll start with Oceans North, Mr. Taylor. You've introduced a very interesting idea of harmonizing with, or at least reflecting, the Oceans Act when looking at the Fisheries Act, which I'm not sure we have heard before. Thanks for bringing that in.
You did mention a purpose statement and some specifics around the preamble, etc. Is that what you're looking for? Is it modernizing the language? You referred also to the concepts that are new in the 20th century Oceans Act versus the 19th century Fisheries Act. Could you expand a bit on that in terms of the wording in the Fisheries Act that you would like to see?
