Fisheries committee  Yes. We have a small reserve in our budget for the situations you mentioned. So we check the amount of the reserve during the year to see whether we need funding. If not, we spend the funds in another way.

Fisheries committee  I don't know if we'd have that information, but we could certainly pick a year and give you that information. It would be a bit of a guess. I don't know. Did you want to say something?

Fisheries committee  No. That's what our estimate would be of one-time funding over five years that would assist us in divesting of the 354 ports, I think it is, that are left to divest.

Fisheries committee  Our vision is based on the budget required for the program, but we currently don't have enough funding. So it's impossible to establish any kind of timetable.

Fisheries committee  Thank you for your question. I can say that the funding gap problem has been around for a long time. I would say it's been about 10 years, even more. We evaluated the situation of our small craft harbours in 2002. That analysis showed that there was a genuine lack of resources.

Fisheries committee  I don't think it's a pipe dream, and it is part of our longer-term vision. We can all kind of guess when we might reach that ultimate vision. To be fair, I think it's quite a few years into the future. As I said earlier in the presentation, we believe that this is the direction

Cal Hegge

Fisheries committee  I think that's a fair comment. The evolution, if you can put it that way, of the use of the harbours has put additional budgetary pressures on the program. Just to name one example--and you may be alluding to this--with some of these changes and increased usage of the harbours by
