Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the member for the great work he does for his constituents.
I received a report from the Atlantic seal science task force just this spring and the government is already taking action on it.
I am happy to share with the House that, on November 8 and 9, I will be hosting a seal summit in St. John's, and we will be exploring opportunities for indigenous and rural communities.
I do look forward to working with indigenous people, industry, scientists and others on this very important goal.
