Can you explain how the department is currently monitoring lobster stocks in southwest Nova Scotia, specifically in St. Marys Bay, given the recent assessments indicating that there is decline? Despite commitments to sustainability, there is a decline.
What's happening in St. Marys Bay is pushing fishers farther out into other zones or other parts of the district, and it's pushing other fishers out. There's definitely a domino effect with what's happening in all of that district at this point.
