This has had a huge impact on the chinook salmon fishery.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884097\" data-originallang=\"en\">I want to focus on the commercial fleet. The commercial fleet has not been getting any sort of compensation or help from the government since the announcement of the closure for the commercial fleet, which continues until August 20. That is a long time without any support for families to trying to make their mortgage payments or keep their boats afloat. There was money put aside, $17 million, that is still sitting in the Pacific salmon treaty fund that has not been used to compensation Area G trawlers specifically. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884098\" data-originallang=\"en\">We are looking for the <a data-HoCid=\"242061\" href=\"/politicians/sean-casey/\" title=\"Sean Casey\">parliamentary secretary</a> to tell coastal people what Liberals are going to do in terms of their tool box. Are they going to go to communities and my riding, look fishers in the eye and tell them that they are not going to do anything for them, that they are just going to leave them high and dry for the summer, or are they going to make sure they show up and help them get through this very difficult time? </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884099\" data-originallang=\"en\">I urge him to do that.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5884095\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je vais recommencer.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884096\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je souhaite rappeler au <a data-HoCid=\"242061\" href=\"/politicians/sean-casey/\" title=\"Sean Casey\">secr\u00e9taire parlementaire du ministre des P\u00eaches, des Oc\u00e9ans et de la Garde c\u00f4ti\u00e8re canadienne</a> la conversation au sujet du saumon quinnat et des fermetures annonc\u00e9es, la d\u00e9cision difficile et audacieuse que le gouvernement a d\u00fb prendre \u00e0 cause de la mauvaise gestion des gouvernements lib\u00e9raux et conservateurs qui se sont succ\u00e9d\u00e9, en particulier une d\u00e9cennie sous le gouvernement Harper, qui a vid\u00e9 de leur substance les mesures de protection des p\u00eaches, a supprim\u00e9 des emplois en science et a musel\u00e9 les scientifiques. Cela a eu une cons\u00e9quence \u00e9norme sur la p\u00eache au saumon quinnat.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884097\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je veux parler en particulier de la flotte commerciale. Celle-ci n'a re\u00e7u aucune indemnisation ou aide du gouvernement depuis l'annonce de la fermeture, qui se poursuit jusqu'au 20 ao\u00fbt. C'est long pour des familles qui doivent se d\u00e9brouiller pour payer leur hypoth\u00e8que ou maintenir leurs bateaux \u00e0 flot. Il y avait de l'argent mis de c\u00f4t\u00e9, 17 millions de dollars, qui se trouve toujours dans le fonds du Trait\u00e9 sur le saumon du Pacifique et qui n'a pas \u00e9t\u00e9 utilis\u00e9 pour indemniser les chalutiers de la zone G en particulier. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884098\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous souhaitons que le <a data-HoCid=\"242061\" href=\"/politicians/sean-casey/\" title=\"Sean Casey\">secr\u00e9taire parlementaire</a> dise aux gens des r\u00e9gions c\u00f4ti\u00e8res ce que les lib\u00e9raux vont faire en ce qui concerne leur bo\u00eete \u00e0 outils. Vont-ils aller dans les collectivit\u00e9s et dans ma circonscription, regarder les p\u00eacheurs dans les yeux, et leur dire qu'ils ne feront rien pour eux, qu'ils les laisseront en plan pour l'\u00e9t\u00e9, ou vont-ils les aider \u00e0 traverser cette p\u00e9riode tr\u00e8s difficile? </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884099\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je l'exhorte \u00e0 offrir cette aide.</p>"
