No. There are lots of different species of fishes that are raised in sea cages, and we don't seem to have a salmon lice problem with them. It's probably because, being the species they are, they don't carry too many salmon lice on them. They haven't affected other things—like in Greece, for one place. The fishery has completely gone more or less there except for aquaculture, so there are no wild populations that they're causing any problems to.
I should tell people on the committee and some of the witnesses here that land-based aquaculture of fishes is doing very well in the Maritimes. We have companies raising halibut, salmon and striped bass. All these fish are showing up in the fish markets in Nova Scotia and the rest of the Maritimes. They're doing fairly well, and I have never heard a single complaint from anybody about them.
There is a lot of land-based aquaculture in other parts of the world as well. People understand that it's like growing chickens, where you have them in a nice little barn and 45 days later you have a whole bunch of chickens. It works very well. You just have to deal with disease problems within the enclosure more or less, and the same works for fish.
