Madam Chair, my last question has to do with capelin. I had to intervene seven times. I had to reach out seven times to make the department listen to two small-scale capelin weir fishers and understand that they were not negatively affecting the resource, even though the fishers themselves had sent numerous letters and emails without ever receiving a response. Their MP had to intervene seven times to get the suspension lifted at the end of the month. Can the minister explain why the department is not doing more to listen to people on the ground when it matters?
