Yes.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I could speak ad nauseam to the series of frustrating communications that have come from the Great Lakes Fishery Commission's Canadian section. Most recently, I've been corresponding with the American section, which has reached out to me as well.
The united council of advisers, on April 25, published a media release and a statement that chronicled three years of frustration with the Canadian government, initially over financing. Actually, what's interesting now is that the pressure has built to the point that the Minister of Finance addressed Canada's shortfall, which had been ongoing since 2001, only to have it not flow through to the Great Lakes Fishery Commission.
I have much more I could say, but I'm hoping we can deal with this and not waste a lot of the committee's time.
Thank you.
