Thank you, Mr. Chair. I thought the time was expired.
To continue in the same vein as my colleagues, you senior officials often use the following excuse: You say that if we do things incorrectly and have a seal hunt or take any other action to reduce the seal population, that could affect other markets, like crab or lobster. That seems to be the easy way out. Is that what's bothering you? Is that the only reason we don't dare move forward with more stringent control of the seal population?
I'd like a brief response to this question.
