Fisheries committee  I'm not aware that $21 million is dedicated to DFO, and it's not for that resource, no. It's for Parks Canada.

Fisheries committee  If I could...because it's to the credibility of my team. With due respect, I didn't take my BlackBerry to send an email, but Nick was sitting there and he told me that he already sent an email to follow up.
