Yes I sit on a board and when I was asked to join I thought about it and told the other existing board members I would come on board to help with the following condition. That the groups focus was as much about restoring fish populations as it was about restoring fisheries access to the resource. I told the board that if I feel the focus shifts to much to just the access I would be out. In my mind you can't be taken seriously by other stakeholders and the public if they think it is all really about gaining access and the rest is lip service. That is my position with SVIAC not the SFAB so much just explaining that because it was brought up. There are some very talented people representing us and they do it by giving up their own free time and in today's climate get very little reward for it. Its almost always more bad news. When was the last time we came into a new season looking at some good news, especially around the south coast? Its time to change it up and I'm not saying I have the answers or the right direction, I have ideas. All I know for sure is that the present way we interact with DFO isn't working and I see no reason why that will change. We want DFO to change...maybe we should lead by example and do it first.
