Dr. Fuller, it's clear that one of the issues when it comes to conservation is that DFO could be doing a much better job with data collection and catch monitoring. What solutions to this problem do you see need to happen? Is it more a question of funding, hiring more regulators, and greater enforcement of dockside or logbook monitoring? Also, maybe you can also share with us how the federal government can better work with first nations to incorporate indigenous knowledge into the data collection process.
