Thank you, Mr. Chair. It's good to see that you're alive and well there in Conception Bay South.
Thank you to the witnesses for taking time to come out and take part in this very important study.
My question is going to be for Mr. Guay.
We've heard numerous witnesses say, in particular with reference to B.C. or Newfoundland, that seafood buyers and processors are operating as cartels or in collusion with one another when it comes to buying or competing for product from fishermen.
How would you define a cartel or collusion in this type of situation between buyers?
