All but the first of these public meetings will be held during the second 90 days of the Task Force’s work, which is focused on coastal and marine spatial planning.

Even after reading these excerpts I don't see where they are saying "Screw You...we don't need you" to the anglers.

That original article that was posted is an Op-Ed piece by a canadian guy that works for Shimano. (We all know aboot dem dare Canadiens, Ay ). Hopefully everybody reads it too, before they get all fired up.
