Mr. Speaker, the hon. member had quite a mouthful to get out. I will try to answer very simply.
First, the program will stay within budget. Second, fishermen who are facing the end of the fishery are now successfully making a transition to new jobs, new opportunities, through the help of their federal government. Third, we are helping to create a new economy in the Atlantic provinces and eastern Quebec to demonstrate that while fish is a very important staple the country can go beyond that and add new products, new services and new opportunities for Atlantic Canadians.
