I could take a go at it, if that's okay.
I agree that it was...“bold” might be the right word, but you have to take it in the context of the brutal cuts to salmon management functions that we've seen over the last 20 years and the extreme crisis that we're in. While it was very welcome, it's really only what we need to just get our heads above water, and only if we don't mess it up.
It's absolutely essential that it be invested properly, with restoring critical habitats, filling those critical gaps in stock assessment and catch monitoring, making our fisheries more sustainable, getting the fish farms out, being extremely cautious with how we use hatcheries, and addressing the chronic management problems and dysfunction at DFO with independent oversight.
