Thank you, Mr. Chairman. That is certainly an approach we wanted to take. As you may be aware, we have our certification program, which features the polar bear prominently. Two out of the three manufacturers in Yellowknife are participating. It is very important, this certification, because we do not want to get into the situation where diamonds that were mined outside the Northwest Territories have polar bears on them. We know that has been happening. For that reason, the trademark issue is very important because of the high premium that is involved with diamonds. Thank you.
