Thank you.
Last week, in response to Senator Dagenais, who asked you questions with regard to willing buyer, willing seller and the elver fishery, you said that the temporary 14% cut—it's temporary two years in a row—to the elver quota actually came from elver fishers themselves.
The lawyer for five of the eight commercial non-indigenous elver fishermen contacted me and said, “That's blatantly false” and that five of the eight did not. In fact, they oppose it. The only elver fishers that support that cut were the elver fishers who don't fish their entire quota. The ones who do fish their entire quota—the five—opposed it. Help me understand why you would tell the Senate that elver fishers proposed this when in fact the majority of them didn't.
