I think it's important to recognize that companies like Premium Seafoods are at the core of the destruction of coastal communities in British Columbia, and the conglomeration of fishery access into the hands of a few corporations has really damaged coastal communities. The government certainly has a duty not to follow that path in Atlantic Canada.
I think there's a bigger question, Mr. Johns, and it's that this deal is not economically, socially or environmentally just, and the comments previously that inshore fishermen are not capable of accessing these grounds belie the truth that there is an amassed fishing fleet on the line that divides the inshore from Clearwater's offshore monopoly, and those fishermen can see Clearwater's offshore lobster fishing vessel from that point. There is the potential here for moderate livelihood integration on this deal, and it needs to be examined.
