Thank you.
I have some issues with Asian carp. We don't have Asian carp in Canada and we need to import it from the United States. However, we have other species here, such as redfish. We learned yesterday that redfish are flourishing in the Gulf of St. Lawrence at the expense of the northern shrimp stocks.
Could this issue be assessed? Some exploratory licences are already being issued in connection with alternative bait. Would it be simpler and safer to consider these possibilities rather than importing Asian carp?
