It appears that the Government of Canada was involved in the establishment of the FAO guidelines, but then backed off or didn't step forward in taking any direct role in our own industry. I'm trying to understand what that means.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3757104\" data-originallang=\"en\">You said the Department of Fisheries shares its research and science with these companies or with the industries. I'm trying to clarify the role of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. In that respect does this also include the small-scale fisheries and some of the work that's been done? The Chedabucto Bay shrimp fishery and the Off the Hook line in Nova Scotia are examples. Could you explain to me why the Government of Canada decided to respond the way it has to help establish international guidelines but then backed off? What role does it play in this business?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3757102\" data-originallang=\"en\">Merci beaucoup, monsieur Stringer, ainsi qu'\u00e0 vos coll\u00e8gues, de vous entretenir avec nous aujourd'hui.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3757103\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je m'interroge au sujet de l'\u00e9cocertification des fruits de mer, et plus particuli\u00e8rement au sujet du r\u00f4le du gouvernement. Il semble que le gouvernement du Canada a particip\u00e9 \u00e0 l'\u00e9tablissement des lignes directrices de la FAO, mais a ensuite fait marche arri\u00e8re ou n'a rien fait pour assumer un r\u00f4le quelconque dans notre industrie. J'essaie de comprendre pourquoi.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3757104\" data-originallang=\"en\">Vous avez dit que le minist\u00e8re des P\u00eaches partage ses recherches et ses donn\u00e9es scientifiques avec ces entreprises ou les industries. J'essaie de clarifier le r\u00f4le du minist\u00e8re des P\u00eaches et des Oc\u00e9ans. Ces donn\u00e9es incluent-elles la p\u00eache artisanale et certains des travaux qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 r\u00e9alis\u00e9s? La p\u00eache \u00e0 la crevette dans la baie de Chedabucto et la p\u00eache aux filets en Nouvelle-\u00c9cosse en sont des exemples. Pourriez-vous m'expliquer pourquoi le gouvernement du Canada a d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de r\u00e9agir comme il l'a fait, en aidant \u00e0 \u00e9tablir des lignes directrices internationales pour ensuite faire machine arri\u00e8re? Quel r\u00f4le joue-t-il dans ce secteur d'activit\u00e9?</p>"
