None of the issues you've raised actually impede Canada and the U.S. from negotiating a resolution to our boundary dispute.
The issues you've raised are really about managing resources and environment, as Canada is doing as well. If you try to separate those two, it really confuses the issue. When it comes to where the line should go, that's going to be about where the line should go, not about what's in the air or how we're dealing with fish. Both of us are concerned about fish and both of us are concerned about the air. We do that together. Where the line goes is a negotiation between two sovereign states to eliminate a dispute.
What I indicated in my statement was that the two governments are now meeting at the scientific and official level to determine just how and when we can start a real negotiation. The Americans are pretty keen on having much more science at this point, in terms of the seabed, before they want to come to the table. Canada is happy to work with them. We've had the Louis S. St. Laurent and the USCGC Healy working together to make those soundings.
A lot of these disputes will be dealt with by science, and the rest of it will be dealt with by lawyers like us.
