Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am glad to hear that Mr. Todd feels he is the Canadian expert after his most recent trip to Antwerp and London. I am sure he comes back with more knowledge than ever. Mr. Speaker, I am wondering if the Minister could advise the House, for the benefit of the public, on what some of the extended benefits are? We have been talking about the royalty regime and how Canada can benefit from the royalty. But there are expanded benefits to be realized from sorting and valuating diamonds in the north. I wonder for those of us, who were not along on the trip, if he could update us on that kind of information? Thank you.
