The issue there is on this question of using that money wisely. That money was meant to come to the west coast of Vancouver Island to support the communities that were facing cutbacks in what they were allowed to fish. Very little of that money has actually made it here. We've been going after them over and over again.
We have fishers who are Area G fishers. They've lost a lot of catch and had their livelihoods suffer, and we've made some simple requests to DFO to have that money come to the region. I guess that's what I'm talking about in the larger picture: We need regional support for this, and West Coast Aquatic is there to enable that.
The mitigation fund is money that could have been going to the coast and could have been supporting salmon rebuilding for all these many years. It still could, if the department would simply make a decision around that.
