Mr. Chairman, that would be my hope. I realize what Mr. Koe is saying, that we are facing some very tough times. It has been talked about that there may have to be $100 million cut. Probably those numbers being thrown around are alarming people, but let's just say if it's even $60 million, it's still a lot of money. I would think that at that time when that issue is addressed, the accumulated debt should be addressed at that time as well. I would hope that the next government would be able to put in place a budget that obeys this act and, at the same time, addresses the accumulated debt of that particular time. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
