Absolutely, it's a progressive step, but on its own, it doesn't.... It helps certain areas, for sure, but it definitely needs to be coupled with other things as well.
There's no doubt that the fishery is in decline, as I mentioned earlier, and it won't be just one thing—such as mass marking 100% of our hatchery fish—that's going to save it. There definitely need to be more steps taken...allowing access to British Columbians and Canadians to the fish that are a public resource.
