The position of the Cabinet is no different with the WCB than it was with the Power Corporation, and my honourable colleague, Mr. Dent, spoke to you yesterday. In an ideal world, we would have liked to have seen one, because there is some value in the economies of scale as my honourable colleague talks about. The reality is, that does not appear to be what is acceptable east and west. We are trying, to the best of our ability, to develop bridging mechanisms for further discussion, east and west, for two new governments and leaving the options open should the two new governments decide that they wish to maintain it or wish to split it in an orderly, fair and reasonable way. Thank you.
