Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans promised to ensure the safety of our Canadian sealers. He stood in the House a week ago and told us charges would be pursued against the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and that our government would not tolerate the reckless antics of these money-sucking manipulators who threaten the safety of Canadians while posing as conservationist.
Over the weekend the government did the right thing and the vessel, the Farley Mowat, was seized and brought to port.
Would the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans please provide an update?
