As Mr. Obed mentioned, we have huge restrictions on local production. We have a lot of seafood—scallops, mussels, char, fish—but there are a lot of restrictions and obstacles. Food inspections and government regulations restrict the use of local and regional resources.

We could provide healthy food to the communities. Instead of buying cheeseburgers and fries, people could buy very good food.
