Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Chief Marshall and Mr. Martin, it's a pleasure to see you here tonight to provide us with a little context. As you know, I represent the area that has St. Marys Bay in it, so I have been spending a lot of time talking to lots of folks in regard to the fishery issue with Sipekne'katik.
The Department of Fisheries and Oceans has been very inconsistent with its approach to fisheries management in general, whether it be indigenous or not. We just have to look as far as your moderate livelihood fishery to see that. On the one hand, the DFO went and hauled your traps, but here in St. Marys Bay the DFO didn't haul Sipekne'katik's traps. Why are the two bands being treated so differently in the same management zone by DFO?
Would either Chief Marshall or Mr. Martin want to comment on that?
