Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'm not sure I could support that subamendment, because there's absolutely no connection between cod in the Gulf of St. Lawrence estuary and cod on Canada's eastern continental shelf, northern cod 2J3KL. It's technically imprudent. I think the subamendment should stand as is, because scientifically there is no connection between the cod in that part of the St. Lawrence especially and the northern cod.
Thank you.
