I am speaking in general terms: It could be crab quotas for associations or exploratory licences for lobster. We could also talk about quotas for other species for other associations around the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
In the past, assistance measures have been provided to various associations to help them overcome a crisis or to help their fishers overcome it. I suggest that we reflect on this, thinking about what already exists and what could be done.
We should also ask ourselves whether this resource, associated with a dollar value, is being used in the best possible way. The idea is not to take anything away from anyone, but we should at least ask ourselves whether we can do things differently with the available allocations.
