Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I understand that the general thrust of these negotiations are that Canada gives up a share of its turbot allocation in these waters to the Europeans in return for the Europeans agreeing to more stringent enforcement mechanisms. I would like to ask the Minister, if the overall Canadian quota is reduced in these negotiations with the Europeans, is it not possible that this reduction in the overall Canadian quota will squeeze the allocations available within Canadian waters, particularly to applicant from the Northwest Territories? Thank you.
