Thank you, Minister.
Since 1999, the Unama'ki Institute of Natural Resources, UINR, has been working together and collaboratively with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and various protection agencies on a wide swath of different species, such as eels, oysters, salmon. We had Shelley Denny, who is doing her Ph.D. in marine biology, testify at this committee that they've been working collaboratively with government on a number of species.
Are they not a promising example of how government can collaboratively work with indigenous nations on resource management? They've been doing it for more than 20 years. Is Unama'ki not a model that has been working in Cape Breton, and is this something we could expand to all of the fishery?
