Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I think I want to continue somewhat along the lines of where Ms. Barron was going here with the exploitation rates and so on.
You indicated, Mr. Bonnell, I believe, and Mr. Wareham, that there were indications that the stocks were returning.
Mr. Wareham, you indicated $14 million in plant upgrades in anticipation, yet until there was a change in the modelling—a change in modelling, not a change in the number of fish—there would be no great growth in the season. It was still to be not a sentinel fishery, but not a commercial fishery.
Can you connect those dots for me, the investment that was being made and the belief that the cod stocks were improving, yet the department had no indication of that until they changed the modelling?
