Fisheries committee  I'm going to pass that to Sharon.

Fisheries committee  It's really DFO's job to protect wild fish. It is supposed to be working together on this issue, and you're bringing up the exact issue that we're trying to raise in our audit, which is this disconnect between the two of them. Do you want to add anything, Sharon?

Fisheries committee  It would really be up to parliamentarians to decide that. That's your job.

Fisheries committee  My job is that once you tell me there is a law, I can tell you how well it has been implemented. You could pick up a law that says we want monkeys to jump all over the buildings. Let's say you pass that law. I could tell you how well monkeys are doing jumping around the buildin

Fisheries committee  I don't believe we did very much benchmarking in this study. We audited our government and how well our government is doing implementing the rules that it has initiated.

Fisheries committee  That's a great question. We didn't audit that question. We audited how well the federal government is implementing the regulations that it has already put in place. We've identified a series of key risks and we made a series of recommendations. If those recommendations were imp

Fisheries committee  We didn't look at that. We do indicate in our audit that many fish farms start off with small fish in those land-based containment areas and then they are transferred into the big pens, but we did not audit that specifically.

Fisheries committee  Thank you.

Fisheries committee  I want to make something clear. They do look at diseases. They've looked at one out of 10, and they have a plan to get the other nine out of 10 done by 2020. They're not looking at new and emerging diseases. That is obviously a concern, but to say they're not doing anything on t

Fisheries committee  On PRV, yes. They've just announced it last month.

Fisheries committee  Off the top of my head, I can't. We could get that for you.

October 23rd, 2018Committee meeting

Julie Gelfand

Fisheries committee  We think, and we made a recommendation, that they need to articulate the level of risk to wild fish that they're prepared to accept, given that they're also allowing this aquaculture industry to operate. I think they're at risk because they have, as I said before, no action for

Fisheries committee  And your question is...?

October 23rd, 2018Committee meeting

Julie Gelfand

Fisheries committee  No. That was not part of our audit. We did not compare land-based. We're just telling you what is out there in the public domain. We did not look at that.

October 23rd, 2018Committee meeting

Julie Gelfand

Fisheries committee  That's a great question to ask the department. What we can tell you is that it's operated differently on each coast. It's regulated differently. On the east coast, it's the provinces that are regulating aquaculture, and on the west coast it's the federal government. The federal
