Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I like it when my colleague gets excited. (Applause) Anyway, Mr. Speaker, as I said to my colleague and the colleagues in the House at this time, I do not see where there are going to be any surpluses except for what we announced in the budget. I believe if there was an overall surplus in the budget, it would go against the accumulated deficit to ensure that when the two new territories come into being, that the debt load that they will have to carry will be less. Thank you.
