No, and if I gave that impression, I didn't intend that. I think the answer is that it depends where you look. The former Speaker of the House in Congress, Tip O'Neill, once said all politics is local. I think that analogy applies to fisheries management, as well, and wildlife for that matter, and the two gentlemen next to me both commented about essentially trying to manage a moving target, and that nature is never static. When you pull on one string, the others are attached. But I think it's important to take a look at what the causal factors and what the potential solutions are, and whether, in this conversation, MPAs are that solution in a given scenario.
For example, on the west coast, I've had the opportunity to tour some of the streams where salmon spawn on the west coast of Vancouver Island. Due to human encroachment, subdivisions and so on, many of those areas are the length of this room and you could jump across the stream at certain times of the year. It's a minimum of what's left of what once existed. It's not as the result of recreational fishing in that case. It's a result of habitat issues where the fish spawn. I think looking at the overall picture, but on a local basis, is really where the answers are found, realizing that on the global stage a lot of these things are spoken about in a very general fashion but the specific is more important in fisheries management.
