There is a buddy-up arrangement. The way it works is that, in Newfoundland, you're allowed to combine three licences, so you can buy three enterprises and stack them on your own. You can buddy up for up to five enterprises in total, so if I had three and my brother had two, we could combine them. Since we both have three each, we're not allowed to do it. These are the kinds of things that don't make any sense. I don't know who came up with them and it's impossible to get them back on the table to talk about it. Why would you be allowed to buy three each and not be allowed to buddy up and work together?
DFO is really concerned about controlling agreements and rightfully so. Anything they've done has not curbed that. If anything, it's getting worse. They're attacking the few independent guys who are still there and trying to make a living. If the licence-holders are aboard the boat, who cares? You have three licence-holders aboard a boat and the gentlemen can vouch for that. Why does it matter? You're on the boat, so who cares who owns the boat, if you're all together catching the stuff that you're licenced to catch?
