Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, on page four of the Budget Address, the Minister states that our staff represents our most valuable resource. With these new source revenues that the Minister talked about earlier, I wonder, is there anything that we are going to be able to do, as I said earlier in my reply to the Budget Address, to help our employees fiscally? As the Minister says in his Budget Address, our staff represent our most valuable resource. I think a valuable resource should be helped out fiscally, and when I say fiscally, I guess I mean in the wallet, and right now it is a great time to address this because, indeed, we are under negotiations. So, I am wondering if Mr. Todd has looked at any way of these new source revenues mentioned earlier to Mr. Ootes about helping our much valuable resources, as he says. Thank you.
