Madam Speaker, some numbers came out this morning about the importance of supporting a free and independent press, and they are quite interesting. If members do not want to listen to me, then maybe they can at least listen to their own voters, the people who voted for them, and 71% of self-identified Conservative voters think web giants should have to share revenue with Canadian media outlets. That is 71% of Conservatives. I have a second number, and it is that 74% of self-identified Conservative voters think that Parliament should pass a law that would let smaller outlets negotiate collectively with web giants. This is exactly what we are doing with this bill.

Mr. Chair, I want to thank the member for her question. Yes, we support independent harvesters with fishery allocations and with data on both sea and fishing conditions. We have new regulations in place for independent harvesters.

Mr. Chair, the minister just said that she supports independent harvesters and coastal communities. Does she feel that the policies and regulations that protect them are being respected?
