Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I have no doubt that some students will find employment in programs that are not funded through the Working Together Program. This program would not support the salaries of all summer students who work for this government. However, the hundreds of students who did have jobs that were funded by the program last year may have to wait until the approval of this specific million dollars. To answer the Member's question, yes, much is dependent on that specific million dollars. In fact, during consideration of the budget in committee of the whole, we will be introducing amendments to include that million dollars as it is not included in the Main Estimates at present. As we are going through the budget today, tomorrow, the day after or whenever we get to that specific line, we will be introducing amendments to add the money. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
