Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I won't take two and a half minutes, as I have less time now, but I'm still going to continue by addressing Mr. Lanteigne.

Mr. Lanteigne, you talked earlier about an opening committee, saying that would be a very good way to proceed. Mr. Noël was saying that implementing the various solutions proposed by DFO by January 2023 was not feasible. Could this opening committee then be an alternative, short-term solution to ask for a longer deadline, and could it be implemented quickly?

Also, would it be feasible to add to the committee someone who represents the U.S. market?
