Mr. Chairman, on individual and specific cases, especially when it is in regards to layoffs, I am a bit more comfortable in asking the deputy minister to respond. If I could just make an overall general comment on especially what the Member had said earlier in opening remarks about getting some certainty on layoffs and some stability, I would say that we have pretty much completed our rounds of layoffs and barring a disaster as the Finance Minister likes to say, that after 12 more layoffs planned, that should be it for us. If I could ask the deputy minister, if it is okay with you, Mr. Chairman, to comment on the Fort Smith situation.
