Okay.

This question is for Mr. Snyder.

As I'm sure you are aware, the federal government attempted to cut funding for the salmonid enhancement program in 2017. The SEP provides valuable support for public education and grassroots conservation institutes in B.C. for the benefit of our wild Pacific salmon.

Has the Spruce City Wildlife Association benefited from the SEP resources in the past, and how important is the salmonid enhancement program to grassroots organizations like yours in B.C.?
