Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Monsieur Bourdages, you talked about the lack of restrictions on clam harvesting 35 years ago, when the protection of our marine ecosystems and coastal areas was nowhere compared to what it is today. Do you think the local coastal ecosystem is cleaner and that it should be less of an obstacle to opening areas for clam harvesting than it was 35 years ago due to the protection of the environment and waste management and whatnot?
