Mr. Chairman, I could see why it would be easier to understand if we had it all in one pool of funds in one department. The practice has been to have the money with the department that is the lead on that particular area of interest. In this case, this money is used to support aboriginal governments and organizations primarily in wildlife research and preparation, so we keep it in here. It could theoretically be all put together in one spot. The concern, I suppose, from our perspective, would be to eventually possibly lose the emphasis that we feel is necessary on land and wildlife.
