Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, witnesses, for coming on what is relatively short notice in our determination to do this important study.

Can the witnesses—and I'll just say “the witnesses” because I'm not sure whom to direct this to—tell me how many right whales in the Gulf of St. Lawrence or off of Nova Scotia have been entangled in lobster gear since 2017?
