I'll offer a few thoughts on that.
I'll start by saying that we do use a variety of tools for domestic enforcement. We have C and P working with the Coast Guard related to maritime domain awareness, knowing where activities are occurring and deploying assets appropriately related to that. We can tell if a vessel is fishing versus transiting, based on its speed and behaviour. We are able to do a lot of things that in years gone by you just weren't able to do from a computer screen somewhere. You just needed to be out to see it. There's a real modernized approach to maritime domain awareness domestically.
You mentioned internationally. I will note the work that Canada is leading on globally related to dark vessel detection, working with countries like Ecuador and the Philippines, for example, and helping them develop the tools they need for their maritime domain awareness as well to support fisheries enforcement. There are really exciting developments from that related to protecting the Galapagos Islands and seeing the Chinese distant-water fleet literally being pushed out of those areas where they otherwise would be destroying those valuable ecosystems.
We're also engaged with partners—the U.S., Japan, Korea—on Operation North Pacific Guard with aerial surveillance as well as on-water presence. Last year Canada had a vessel. We hope that will be the case again this year, along with the U.S., where enforcement agencies from all of those countries are coordinating and present on the vessel to enforce high seas rules.
That is the other important piece. You were mentioning regulations. By ensuring that the international rules-based framework is in place and enforceable, we really can ensure that the bad actors on the high seas are able to be dealt with. Really important and encouraging progress is being made on all those fronts.
