Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will try to respond in a very practical manner here. What we are attempting to do is to increase the budget for emergency measures services, and that will take a bit of time. The other thing I spoke about earlier is that we are trying to put extra money into fire protection services. That will place an emphasis on fire protection, training and also taking an inventory of all the firefighting equipment in the communities, whether it is foam-based or water-based. Thank you.
