I would also note that some of the mitigation measures that are taken within Canada to mitigate right whale entanglements have had, and can have, extreme effects on our industry. All fishing in an area can be prevented. We're right in the middle of a crisis right now in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, due to the presence of a right whale at the start of a very important lobster fishery for the economies on the Acadian Peninsula in New Brunswick.
I think the protection of the whales is certainly a duty of Canada and of the industry. However, because it's a duty of Canada and Canadians, I think the government needs to consider support for industries that are incredibly affected by that. That support can take the form of financial support, but it can also take the form of better science, better observation and better overflights to determine when whales are in an area and importantly, when they've left an area and where exactly they've been sighted, so that fishermen can still retain portions of a closed fishing area to make a living. The loss of an entire season or the loss of the most lucrative part of a season for whale protection is not something that many fishing families can recover from to come back the next year.
