Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I say, MP Green, that was pretty good for a guy from Lake Ontario.

I have a fellow Lake Ontario Conservative...Lake Erie. Sorry, I shouldn't mix up the lakes. We have a Lake Erie member here in Mr. Epp.

I'd like to start perhaps with Dr. Westley.

I believe I heard in your opening that you said that we need to focus on science that will make a difference.

I might draw two things. One is that we haven't done science that makes a difference with regard to the Yukon salmon. Two, what would that exactly be that's not being done now?
