Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Gagné, I want to make sure we understand what happened to you. As you explained in your presentation, you started out as a pelagic herring and mackerel fisher. Later, you added crab, but crab quotas have been decreasing every year. At the same time, there was a moratorium on herring and mackerel fishing. Finally, you explained this briefly, but I want to come back to it: When you participated in the process, you were disqualified in every possible way.
Please explain a little why you were unable to obtain an exploratory licence.
