Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans.
The fishing industry on the Great Lakes is used by four million anglers, generates $2 billion to $4 billion annually and supports some 75,000 full time jobs.
Now there is evidence to suggest that the sea lamprey eel is making a strong comeback in the Great Lakes. What is being done by the government to address this problem before it gets totally out of hand?
