Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I think that if for -- I am trying not to express my opinion here but the position of the department is that we have looked at what is available out there and with the information that has been provided to me and working on this issue, it is pretty clear that we are trying to do this for all the right reasons, to try to save a couple of million dollars over the life of this contract. We plan to keep the business north. If there are other airline businesses that have the air tankers and the ability to do this kind of work then certainly we could look at that as well. Thank you.
