Order. Let us all take a moment and take a deep breath. Question period is not for another hour or so. Let us bring the temperature down, but also let us not do indirectly what we cannot do directly either. The hon. member for Winnipeg North.

Madam Chair, the minister recently decided to shut down the commercial Atlantic mackerel fishery. Two primary sources of science used by DFO to understand the science are stock catch data and spawning biomass. Can the minister tell us what temperature the water in the gulf needs to be for Atlantic mackerel to spawn?

Madam Chair, the minister does not know the answer to that question. The water needs to be between 10° to 13°. Can the minister tell us what the average temperature has been over the last decade when DFO does it spawning science for Atlantic mackerel?
