This is coming over and above the budget, okay.
We've been hearing from community members from my riding up and down the coast that there is a requirement for significant and ongoing new resources to address the salmon conservation problem, and the corresponding effect on the ecosystem, economy and workers of Canada. Simply put, a temporary infusion of new money will not adequately address the problem.
What can we do, as a committee, to ensure that DFO gets a permanent addition of significant resources, so that your department and your respective partners can address the root causes of these conservation problems?
