Once an area is identified, as I was noting earlier, it's very important for us to understand what the conservation objectives are that are being sought. Based on that site-specific understanding, all the human activities that are occurring within that geographical area are assessed to understand what activities would need to be managed and where measures would be required. In Canada, because we take a site-specific, tailored approach to each of our areas, there are many marine protected areas where fishing actually continues. The ones that have been limited are those where there is a relationship and risk associated with the conservation objectives.
When we engage with stakeholders, our objective is to try to present the areas are that we're considering for protection and then begin consultation to understand and to draw on the knowledge that the fishing industry has in order to adjust boundaries to achieve conservation objectives and limit potential economic impact. We've seen over time that this collaboration has led to really good results in terms of minimizing those impacts, thanks to the advice and insight we've gleaned from our consultations and work with the fishing industry.
