Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. MacPherson. We'll now go to Alexandra Morton for seven minutes or less, please.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Berry. We'll now go to the Prince Edward Island Fishermen's Association for seven minutes. Gentlemen, I don't know if you're sharing your time.

Fisheries committee  I call the meeting to order. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we are studying the adequacy of enforcement and penalties for infractions of the Fisheries Act. For the first hour, by video conference, we have Bernie Berry from the Coldwater Lobster Association. From the Prince Edward Island Fishermen's Association, we have Robert Jenkins, President, and Ian MacPherson, Executive Director.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Arnold. I'll take this time now to thank both of our witnesses, Mr. Gibson and Mr. Norris, for their presentations here today. To be truthful, I thought when we took this on that it was going to be a bit of a boring conversation, but it certainly hasn't been. It's been of interest, I have to say.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Hardie. Now we will go to the Conservative side for five minutes or less. Go ahead, Mr. Arnold.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Johns. Your time is well up. We will now go back to the government side and Mr. Hardie. You have seven minutes or less. Go ahead, please.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Calkins. We will probably have to wait to get an answer from another questioner on that one. We've gone way over time. Mr. Johns, go ahead for seven minutes or less, please.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Morrissey. Unfortunately, Mr. Finnigan said he was sharing his time, not splitting it.

Fisheries committee  Now we'll go to Mr. Calkins on the Conservative side, for seven minutes or less, please.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Gibson. We'll go now to the government side and Mr. Finnigan, please, for seven minutes or less.

As well, from Ontario Power Generation Incorporated, here in person we have Mr. Daniel Gibson, Senior Environment Specialist and Chair of the Fisheries Working Group in Renewable Generation and Environment for Waterpower Canada.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Arnold. Your time is up. I want to say thank you to our witnesses for appearing, both by video conference and here in person. We'll suspend for a couple of minutes to change the panel for the next hour. We have some witnesses by video conference and we want to make sure they're hooked up and ready to go.

Fisheries committee  Thank you, Mr. Hardie. We'll now go to the Conservative side and Mr. Arnold for five minutes or less, please.
