Thank you, Minister.
I also want to say thank you for the small craft harbours funding. I know that's going to mean a lot to our communities in the Atlantic.
This funding, I understand, is part of our broader blue economy strategy, which I know is currently soliciting feedback from the same stakeholders we discussed earlier: indigenous peoples, commercial fishermen, environmental groups.
Could you speak a bit about the importance of the consultation to the strategy as a whole?
