Again, Mr. Speaker, that depends on what you're talking about. The fact is, under the French language educational programming, the Secretary of State agreed to a four per cent reduction only. Under the aboriginal languages area, it was ten per cent. So, the problem is, it depends on what it is you're talking about. The general criticism directed to me by the honourable colleague opposite, was that we did not stand up to the government, in terms of making sure that certain cuts did not take place. We were not successful in the aboriginal rights languages area, but we were able to protect the French language area.
