Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Bloomer. We are now going to the Seafood Producers Association of British Columbia, with Chris Sporer and Christina Burridge. Good morning. I hear you've been there since very early this morning, so thank you for taking the time to appear before us again this morning.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Dr. Lapointe and Dr. Browne. We are now going to go to Mr. Bloomer from CEPA, please, for 10 minutes.

Fisheries committee  Welcome back to our second hour. We now have with us Monsieur Ayoub, member for Thérèse-De Blainville, and Sean Casey, from Charlottetown. Welcome. Thank you for joining us for the next little while. We're going to move on to our presenters for the second hour. We have, from the Canadian Wildlife Federation, Nick Lapointe, Senior Conservation Biologist, Freshwater Ecology, and David Browne, Director of Conservation.

Fisheries committee  That's the time. Thank you very much. I would like to thank our first witnesses today: Mr. Lansbergen, Ms. Lindsay, and Mr. Berry. Mr. Berry, it's always good to hear from you. Thank you for joining us this morning from Yarmouth. We're going to suspend for a few minutes while we change panels.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Ms. Lindsay. Mr. Donnelly, you have five minutes, please.

Fisheries committee  You have thirty seconds, please.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Hardie. That's your five minutes. We're going now to Mr. Miller, please, for his five minutes.

Fisheries committee  Thank you. We're going now to Mr. Hardie.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Lansbergen. Now we're going to go to Mr. Donnelly, please, for five minutes.

Fisheries committee  I'm sorry. I have to cut you off there and go for our next five minutes to Mr. Arnold.

Fisheries committee  We'll start with Mr. Berry since he's on the phone, if that's okay, and then we'll go to Mr. Lansbergen.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Bernie. It's a little bit difficult to see if you want to chime in on anything, because you're on the phone, but if there's ever a question put forward that you may want to answer, just indicate that you have a comment on it. That would be great.

Fisheries committee  Okay, thanks. Pursuant to the motion adopted on May 1, 2018, the round of questions will be five minutes for all parties. We can get through two rounds each, so it looks as though we'll each get 10 minutes. For the first five minutes, we're going to go to Mr. Finnigan.

Fisheries committee  Thank you very much, Ms. Lindsay. We will now be moving on to Bernie for 10 minutes, please.

Fisheries committee  Thank you very much. We will now move to Kate Lindsay, Director of Environmental Regulations and Conservation Biology for the Forest Products Association of Canada, for 10 minutes, please. Go ahead.
