industrialization, as they add up the areas they plan to "protect".  =
Perhaps Minster Belliveau and his department would do well to start =
protecting what we have by enforcing existing laws, rather than rubber =

our coastline.  Witness what has happened in Westport Harbour on Brier =
Island, and to Peters Island in the Passage between Brier and Long =
Island.  Parts of it have become a cesspool, and Minister Belliveau's =
department has just extended the licence of that aquaculture operation =
for another 10 years.
I didn't see the minister come down to Long and Brier Islands to make an =
announcement about that piece of news.
