Thank you for the question, Mr. Chair.
The department is mandated to lead Canada's participation and engagement in a number of international and bilateral fishery bodies, including seven regional fisheries management organizations such as NAFO, NASCO, ICCAT, and IATTC, two of which we're hosting the international meetings for this year, and several bilateral fisheries commissions directly with the United States, including the Pacific albacore tuna treaty, the Pacific hake treaty, the Pacific Salmon Commission, and the Georges Bank transboundary fish stocks.
