Minister, I am going to try to summarize all that. There are fears that a critical situation is taking shape regarding shrimp, herring and mackerel. It is already very difficult. The case of seaweed harvesters is also becoming a matter of concern. Harvesters are going to New Brunswick, where there is no regulation, to harvest seaweed. We also have to mention cockles, which can be harvested on one side of Chaleur Bay but not on the other. A lot of irregularities are being committed, particularly in Quebec.
Fishers decry the fact that they are not being consulted, despite their expertise on the ground. They want to protect the resource more than all of us because that is their livelihood. I am thinking of the seaweed harvesters, of course, but also of all the other fishers who know better than anyone how things really are on the ground.
Are you open to the idea of creating a round table or a study table where the fishers could contribute their expertise so that more consideration would be given to it?
