Fisheries committee  That's fine. Great. The question I have for you is this. You mentioned that the enforcement would probably lie strictly with the Environment Canada officials and the Canada Border Services Agency officials. However, you did indicate that commercial fishermen or other fishermen m

Fisheries committee  Okay. It's not illegal to catch a shark because, as you've said, bycatch is allowed, so then we're to assume that the only shark meat in the Canadian marketplace, should this bill come to pass, would be fish caught in Canadian waters, period.

Fisheries committee  You mean as a whole carcass. All right. Good. Do we have any idea of whether there is any IUU for sharks in Canadian waters?

Fisheries committee  Okay, that's fine. We've established that there's no conflict if Bill C-68 and Bill S-238 both pass. There's no statutory conflict. Is that correct? Just to reaffirm, there's a bit of a differentiation, and this would allow, in theory, law enforcement officials to then choose

Fisheries committee  Okay. I just want to know if it's feasible in theory. If both pieces of legislation pass, a charge could be actually laid under two pieces of legislation for the same act, in theory, and then the Crown would have the ability to determine which piece of legislation is statutory. I

Fisheries committee  When answering previous questions, you mentioned that you do a number of tests primarily for food safety. I'm guessing that would include things like ciguatera, methylmercury and all kinds of other things like that. Am I correct? You talked about dioxins. You talked about all of

Fisheries committee  Has there been any evidence of or are you aware of any situation where, when someone attempted ship fish in or bring it across the border in any form, whether unprocessed or processed, they were actually questioned as to whether or not it was what it said on the bill of lading?

Fisheries committee  I don't have any more questions. Some of my colleagues do.

Fisheries committee  I really appreciate your referring to this side as the government side, Mr. Chair.

Fisheries committee  I couldn't agree with you more. Ms. Lamondin, I would like to ask you some questions along the following line. Is there information that you or your department wishes was on the bill of lading or on the label when we have a seafood product in any shape or form, from a raw produc

Fisheries committee  I was going to ask you about that. Do you believe the legislation and the new regulatory framework that you have actually have the right penalties or corrective actions in place? Are they sufficient to change behaviour that needs to be changed, or to be a deterrent going forward?

Fisheries committee  That's great.

Fisheries committee  When the EU process you talked about was put in place, was there an impact on the costs associated with the market price of seafood now going through the legal channel? I'm curious what the impact is because I'm a farmer from central Alberta. When we put traceability requirements

Fisheries committee  They're already certified.

Fisheries committee  I understand. The chair is going to take my time. I have a lot of great questions.
