Absolutely.
Conservation underpins everything we do at DFO. Making sure that the stocks, which are healthy right now, remain healthy for generations and sustainable for long-term fisheries is critical. That's not only for commercial harvesters, but for first nations as well. Everybody has the same goal here. Nobody wants to see the stocks depleted. Every decision that I make with regard to agreements, with regard to making sure we're moving forward in a positive way, will always have conservation at the head of it. We'll always have conservation and make sure that we have a long-term, sustainable industry.
As you know yourself, Mr. Morrissey, in your area, we rely on it here in Atlantic Canada. The lobster fishery has to be something that we continue to work on to make sure it is there for years and generations to come.
