Mr. Chairman, we're not getting anything from the federal government for this particular project. I think both governments and the Inuvialuit recognize that it needs to be done. The federal government has some money in its budget in DIAND to pay these costs. We're hopefully in the final stages of negotiating an agreement with the federal government that would allow the Inuvialuit participation costs to flow through the Government of the Northwest Territories or through some other agreement to the Inuvialuit. I would hope we will be able to conclude this issue in the coming fiscal year, Mr. Chairman. Thank you.
