Thank you for that answer, Minister. I hope that clears things up for the Conservative leader and a few others.
A number of us have been on this committee since 2015 or early 2016, and over that time I have to say that, as a group, this committee, with its various members, has been almost unanimous in focusing on the issue. The partisan stuff, of course, comes up every now and again, but the real focus is on doing what's best for our wild fish stocks and for the people who make a living from that and whose culture depends on it.
We have come up with any number of excellent reports with very solid recommendations. We have a concern that very few of those recommendations are ever acted on. I am wondering if, in your short time as minister, you've had the time to go back and assess the performance of the DFO in addressing the concerns that we've raised and our suggestions for how to resolve them.
