Mr. Speaker, what I agree with—and the minister ought to agree with us—is that special conditions have been created by reducing the quotas. People are suffering, both those who are no longer working in the fish plants and those who are more directly involved in fishing.
The temporary measures the government took to satisfy these communities just before the last election will expire in October. I ask the minister if , at least, these measures could be extended, even though they are insufficient and the situation will be much worse by October.
