Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I understand the Minister now. It has been brought to my attention, Mr. Speaker, that in some cases this can be financially difficult for some families. I notice, in looking at the names of the people who are participating, that sometimes there are two participants in the same family. At $250 each, that is a lot of dollars. I would like to ask the Minister whether or not he would consider revisiting the policy of buy-back in cases where it is necessary because of the financial situation the athletes may find themselves in. I don't think it is difficult to do. There are ways around it. I would like to ask the Minister if he would entertain reinstating that policy.
