Mr. Williams, I'm sorry: That data was provided. It's the law for fishermen to submit that data. You've been sitting on that data for a very long time.
With the northern cod, we've seen exponentially increasing catch rates. When I went to the minister in June, there was no data to support it other than the sentinel fisheries, which showed no improvement for some reason.
It's strange for me to find out through my Order Paper question that the sentinel fisheries showed no improvement in the stock when gillnet catch rates were up about 50 times over what they were in the eighties on a per-hour basis, based on what I'm seeing on the ground.
Do you trust the data that's provided by fishermen, or do you discount it?
