Thank you for your question.
I would say that, when we look at the data, we really see an increase in recruitment, in biomass, since 2020. In addition, the assessment carried out by Fisheries and Oceans Canada in the fall, a year ago, to change the limit reference point with the new data that it incorporated into its analysis, showed that the stock status has now been in the cautious zone since 2016.
As Mr. Bonnell said, every year, we keep track of the department's scientific analyses and assessments of this fishery.
