Mr. Speaker, I'm somewhat concerned. Looking over the documents last year, one supp request alone brought forth by this government was in the area of $72 million, if I recall correctly. There's no doubt, this $27 million supp reserve could go fairly quickly, particularly when you take into account that we've hardly had any snow this winter so we could have another dry fire season. I would like to ask the Minister whether there is anything in place that would not deplete the supp reserve, without good justification, recognizing that it should be needed for areas to be addressed only in time of critical need. Thank you.
