Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to support what Mr. Bragdon put forward about the illegal, unauthorized and unregulated fisheries, the IUU fisheries. That study motion was actually put forward in the first session of the 43rd Parliament. It has certainly been on the books for quite a while. I hope there is full support to move ahead with that study, as it would have an impact on all coasts in Canada, as well as across the world. The seal predation issue seems to be a common study on all coasts as well, maybe not so much in the north but certainly on the east and west coasts.
We want to make sure we are doing, as a committee, what is best for the fish and the fishermen out there. Those two studies I think will have an important impact on Canada's fisheries.
