Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Since we are discussing block funding, I would like to ask the Minister regarding block funding for water and sewage operations. I understand the department had to adjust the amounts communities used to get for subsidies for water and sewer to make the amounts available for the block funding system now in place. Does this mean that communities will now have a reduced amount of funding through block funding, compared to what they had under the previous system?
