Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I only could tell the honourable Member what may possibly happen. It is unknown at this point in time, but if the feds agree to speed up this legislation, then I think they have the capability of doing that. But, if it is going to go through a normal process, I am told that the honourable Member is correct. It would be about 22 months, which is two years, for legislation to go through. If you factor in the federal election that may be coming, perhaps we have already gone past the time before we are able to have a package by 1999. It might be 1999 that we have a package. So I could only speculate at this time, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
