Mr. Speaker, we should refer to the hon. member as the member of gloom and doom. He certainly knows far better than that.
The shellfish industry was the main economic activator in Newfoundland last year. The auditor general had some good things to say in his report as well in terms of some of the directions we are taking.
We have learned lessons from the past. We intend to build on those lessons and we intend to use the auditor general's report as good advice.
